Title: Morphological Variation of Diospyros spp. Native to Sulawesi Based on Vegetative Organ Characters.
Authors: Wulandari, Aprilia Ayu; Khotimperwati, Lilih; Wanda, Irvan Fadli
Abstract: Diospyros spp. is a tree or shrub species belonging to the family Ebenaceae. Researchers have not extensively conducted studies on the morphological characteristics of Diospyros spp. to examine their diversity or enhance information for taxonomic hierarchy purposes. Diospyros spp. in Indonesia has great potential for in-depth research due to its unique characteristics, particularly in Sulawesi. This research aims to fill the knowledge gap regarding investigating phenotypic variations in Diospyros spp., specifically in the Sulawesi region. Nine species of Diospyros spp. from the Bogor Botanical Gardens collection were observed for their morphological characteristics and described according to their character traits. The results indicate 25 variations in morphological characteristics out of the 50 characters used. These 14 characteristics are key characteristics that influence the grouping of Diospyros spp. from Sulawesi. Phenetic analysis generates three clades of 9 accessions Diospyros spp. analyzed.
