Morphometric and cytogenetic studies in mimosa diversipila (Mimosoideae, Leguminosae) and their taxonomic and evolutionary inferences

Here we describe the morphological variability, chromosome number, and chromosome size in Mimosa diversipila. This species comprises two varieties, which are distinguished by the indumentum. However, this character is insufficient for circumscription of these infraspecific taxa. Using multivariate t...
