摘　　要：European wild carnations(Dianthus)are represented by a high number of taxa organized in unresolved taxonomies.In particular,taxa belonging to the Dianthus virgineus L.complex in the Central Mediterranean have been delimited mainly with qualitative morphological data and still await quantitative investigations,which are vital to understand boundaries and relations among plant diversity groups.Here,we examine the phenotypic features of nuclear genome organization testing for species boundaries in this complex.We have studied the chromosome number,the total haploid length(THL),and the relative genome size(RGS)in 122 populations belonging to 25 out of 33 taxa of the complex.All the studied populations have 2n=2x=30 chromosomes,and the THL ranges from 14.09 to 20.71μm.Genome size estimations support the absence of polyploidization events,but show a certain degree of variation(0.318–0.423 arbitrary units).The RGS variation is not in agreement with current taxonomic treatment,but rather shows a geographical pattern,with higher values in Sicily and Sardinia.No correlation between the THL and the RGS was detected,possibly due to the stable chromosome number and the small size of chromosomes.A number of evolutionary unique groups lower than the number of currently accepted taxa may be hypothesized.
