%0 Journal Article %T A comparison between Carex arenaria L. and Carex ligerica GAY - sedges from the Arenariae group based on leaf characteristics %A Lech Urbaniak %J Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae %D 1992 %I Polish Botanical Society %R 10.5586/asbp.1992.024 %X The purpose of the study was to compare two taxonomically close species of sedges - Carex arenaria and Carex ligerica. The analysis was based on 6 characters of leaves. The populations studied were grown for the period of at least one year under the same conditions in a greenhouse. The results of statistical analysis indicate a distinctive character of each of the studied populations. Furthermore, the results show a higher interpopulational differentiation among C. ligerica populations. %K Carex arenaria %K Carex ligerica %K variation %K populations %U http://pbsociety.org.pl/journals/index.php/asbp/article/view/1177
