Table 3 Mean values of Chrysanthemum arcticum (nine populations) and C. a. subsp. arcticum (21 populations) for 21 plant morphological traits (Year 1 data marked by shadow: C. arcticum plant height, inflorescence length, number of leaves, internode length, inflorescence diameter, disc floret diameter, flower petal length, flower fresh weight, flower dry weight and Δflower weight; Year 2 data: C. arcticum leaf length, leaf width, petiole length, lamina length and three qualitative traits (adaxial leaf color, leaf shape, leaf margin), number of days to visible bud date, number of days to flowering and C. a. subsp. arcticum all 21 morphological traits). Mean separations within traits (columns), are based on Tukey’s 5% HSD. Chi-square tests of two qualitative phenotypic traits (leaf shape, leaf margin) tested with equal probability of occurrence (1:1:1:1:1 χ2)
