This study was conducted to examine variations of 35 morphological characteristics of 6 natural populations of Zelkova serrata in Korea. On the basis of the results of the ANOVA tests, the populations were significantly different in 16 of the 20 quantitative morphological characteristics that were tested. In particular, the 'Cheongju-si Gutdae Mountain' population showed larger values in 9 of the 20 quantitative characteristics that were examined. In the results of principal component analysis
