Abstract
A karyological study of six taxa (eight populations) of the genus Artemisia L. from different geographic origins is presented. The work deals with chromosome number and morphometry. We found the two usual basic numbers in the genus: x = 9, the most common one (in two diploid, two hypotetraploid, one tetraploid and one hexaploid populations) and x = 8 (in two diploid populations). Detailed karyotype analysis allows us to group the different populations and to postulate relationships among them. Key words: Asteraceae, Anthemideae, Artemisia, cytotaxonomy, chromosome morphology, evolution.
