| Abstract: | The RAPD technique has been used for analyzing the genetic material of seven Italian populations of theOphrys bertolonii aggregate (Orchidaceae). For comparison the related speciesO. sphegodes andO. fuciflora have also been analyzed. A high genetic variability has been observed within the same populations, and on the whole onlyO. bertolonii can be safely differentiated from the other taxa of the aggregate, which are undistinguishable with this method. |
