Abstract: | Seven populations of Hordelymus europaeus and four populations of Leymus arenarius from Poland were subjected to examination of 36 morphological characters. This study showed that both species are relatively
uniform and that morphological variation of their populations represents a continuum. Of those, three populations of either
species were selected for analysis with molecular markers – RAPDs and AFLPs. These populations differed with respect of geographical
location as well as syntaxa and habitat. RAPD-PCR was performed for individual plants and clearly grouped them according to
the population origin. For either H. europaeus or L. arenarius - the studied populations differed in degree of their intrinsic variation while none of them as a whole was significantly
different from the remaining ones. In AFLP analysis the studied populations were represented by DNA pools of several individual
plants. Also this approach allowed discrimination among the population samples of both H. europaeus and L. arenarius. Both RAPDs and AFLPs were accordant in indication that H. europaeus exceeds L. arenarius with respect to variation accumulated at the DNA level.
