Abstract

Dari total 13 spesies Moringa, di Saudi Arabia hanya terdapat dua spesies, yaitu M. peregrina dan M. oleifera. Kedua spesies ini memiliki kandungan nutrisi dan bahan obat yang tinggi serta mampu bertahan pada iklim kering. Biotipe Moringa baru yang berbeda dengan kedua spesies ini telah teramati di daerah Al Bahah, Saudi Arabia. Pada penelitian ini, karakterisasi dari biotipe baru ini telah dilakukan dengan mengamati 22 karakter kualitatif dan kuantitatif dari daun, biji dan bunga. Semua karakter ini kemudian dibandingkan dengan M. peregrina dan M. oleifera untuk mengetahui hubungan biotipe baru dengan kedua spesies. Hasil pengamatan pada karakter kualitatif menunjukan bahwa biotipe baru ini memiliki 8 karakter (tepi anak daun, warna bunga, bentuk kelopak dan mahkota bunga, perlekatan kelopak bunga, warna dan orientasi kepala sari, dan bentuk dasar  bunga) yang sama dengan kedua spesies, satu karakter (distribusi warna merah pada perhiasan bunga) dengan M. peregrina  saja, tiga karakter (tipe susunan anak daun, kulit biji dan sayap biji) dengan M. oleifera saja. Untuk karakter-karakter kuantitatif, hasil pengukuran menunjukan semua karakter pada biotipe baru berada pada posisi antara M. peregrina and M. oleifera. Berdasarkan hasil ini, kami menyimpulkan bahwa biotipe baru dari Moringa ini adalah hibrid hasil persilangan M. peregrina dan M. oleifera.

Kata kunci: biotipe, bunga, Moringa peregrina; Moringa oleifera, daun, biji.
