Variability of the ligula length among bluegrasses section Stenopoa (Poa L., Poaceae) in Western Siberia
The studies of frequencies of quality character - the length of the flag leaf ligule (4 states) within bluegrass (Poa L.) Stenopoa section have been conducted in Western Siberia. It has shown, that this character has a diagnostic value only within mesomorphic and mesoxero-morphic groups; within xeromesomorphuc and xeromorphic groups it has no diagnostic value. It can be caused by their hybrid origin. However, the length of the ligule, as a qualitative character can be used as a marker of lineage.
