摘要

研究大量印度產之百脈根後認為小葉之被毛、形狀及大小之變異均出於同一族群內，因此將日本百脈根及小形百脈根之變種名稱合併於百脈根種名。

Although Lotus corniculatus in India is the most variable, no infraspecific taxa have been recognised under this because of the overlapping variation shown by different populations. A critical study of the collections reveals that the species varies mainly in pubescence character, shape and size of leaflets and number of flowers often within the same population. The varieties L. corniculatus var. japonicus and L. corniculatus var. minor have been reduced here as synonym under L. corniculatus.
