Abstract
The Jujube tree is a valuable medicinal plant that is considered as an important traditional medicine. It is spreade in different parts of Iran with different climatic conditions so it has a wide ecological tolerance range. Jujube is being found from humid and low altitute region in Caspin Sea littoral to dry and deserty region in Yazd and Tabas and also Fars and Lorestan montains.
The variety of Jujube locations shows genetic diversity of it which is being used in gardens and natural fields with differnce envirental conditions leading us to different quantity and quality of chemical components and ingredients needed for preparation of medicines, In additional protect of Jujube germinative is nessesary, because it is warnning in many ways.This study was executed for finding Jujube ecotype & genetic diversity in Iran in 1999-2002. Ecotypes of Jujube were found in 15 provinces of Iran and stool shoot from 29 regions planted in Badieii research station located in western part of Qom for morphologic and phenologic studies (every ecotype 5 stool shoot from 29 regions planted in Badieii research station located in western part of Qom for morphologic and phenologic studies (every ecotype 5 stool shoots).
Characters of growth and birth orderly was recorded. Analysis of variance indicated that leaf lengh and width in every repeat had significant differences.
