영양생장기(營養生長期)의 형태적(形態的)과 건물수량(乾物收量)과의 관계(關係)를 조사(調査)하여 수량(收量)에 관여(關與)되는 형태적(形態的) 형질(形質)과 품종(品種)의 특성(特性)을 비교(比較), 검토(檢討)하였다. 1. 개체중(건물중(乾物重))은 초장(草長), 엽면적(葉面積) 및 경면적(莖面積)과 유의(有意)한 정상관(正相關)을 나타내어, 개체중의 증가(增加)는 초장(草長), 엽면적(葉面積), 경면적(莖面積)의 상호작용(相互作用)이라고 할 수 있다

Vegetative characters (e.g. habitat, root, ramification and habit of stem, phyllotaxy, leaf sape, shape of leaf margin, shape of division and lobe of division, number of division, thick and texture of leaf and shape of stipule) on 35 species of Asian Geranium were reviewed to discussion propriety of taxonomic character and evolutionary trends. Wilfordii group is characterized by three divided leaf, Farreri group was grown a high altitude, and Maculatum group is grouped by life cycle of anneal. Arrangement state of leaf is alternate type G, tripartitum, G. eriostemon, and G. erianthum is thought the more primitive than the other taxon, and regarded as more advanced group the sibiricum group and pseudosibiricum group which divided of leaf deeply. Shape of leaf, division degree of lobes, shape of leaf margin and number of division are considered a good identification characters because width of change are fixed between population.
