Abstract:

In this study,ninety-six tree peony cultivars planted in Northwest A & F University were selected as the research objects. Phenotypic diversity analysis,correlation analysis,cluster analysis and principal component analysis were used to analyze the phenotypic diversity analysis and ornamental comprehensive evaluation of tree peony growth,new branch length and flowering time. The results showed that the diversity index of 15 phenotypic traits ranged from 0.56 to 2.03,and the coefficient of variation ranged from 11.84% to 53.82%. The phenotypic diversity of flower diameter was the highest,and the coefficient of variation of flower number per plant was the highest. Plant height,growth,flower diameter,new branch thickness and population flowering time were significantly correlated with other traits;Ninety-six tree peony varieties were divided into three groups by cluster analysis,and different groups corresponded to different types of garden applications. Principal component analysis simplified phenotypic trait factors into five principal components,with a cumulative contribution rate of 64.69%. New branch thickness,plant height,population flowering time and number of flowers per plant were the main factors of phenotypic variation of tree peony. The ninety-six tree peony varieties were sorted by comprehensive scores,and the top 10 cultivars had scores ranging from 0.66 to 1.18,and the cultivars with excellent comprehensive traits such as‘Yubanbai’‘Shima Nishiki’‘High Noon’‘Okan’and‘Duohua Luohan’were selected according to the comprehensive scores.
