A numerical taxonomic study of the genus Padina Adanson (Phaeophyta, Dictyotales) from Karachi (Pakistan) coast
During taxonomical survey of Phaeophyta (Dictyotales) 7 species of Padina Adanson were reported from the coast of Karachi (Pakistan). This study deals with the numerical analysis of 7 species of Padina Adanson performed to solve the problem of overlapped characters with regard to morpho-anatomical and reproductive criteria of the species differentiation in Padina. Objective classification highly supported the results based on traditional taxonomy despite the complexities in the genus Padina.
