【 摘 要 】

To characterize the genetic variability among species and populations of South American wild rice, eleven populations of Oryza glumaepatula, seven of O. grandiglumis, four of O. latifolia and one of O. alta, from Brazil and Argentina, were evaluated. A greenhouse experiment was conducted in completely randomized blocks with 23 treatments. Twenty morphoagronomic traits were assessed. Univariate analyses were performed with 16 quantitative traits with the partitioning of populations within species. Significant differences (p<0.001) between species were observed for all the traits as well as among populations within the species. The most variable was O. glumaepatula followed by O. latifolia. Multivariate discriminant canonical and cluster analyses confirmed the separation of the highly diverse O. glumaepatula populations from the tetraploid species, and the high genetic variation among O. latifolia populations. Morphological differences among the three tetraploid species seemed to be enough to ascribe them at least the condition of species in statu nascendi.
