Abstract Intraspecific trait variability (ITV) can be considerably high and reveal plant local adaptation. The aim of this study is to investigate ITV leaf traits (including petioles) in a rooted floating-leaved macrophyte ( Nuphar lutea ) at the scale. We expected see changes resource-use strategies relation water sediment properties. 96 leaves were sampled hyper-eutrophic shallow lake central...

Foliar and petiole micro-morphological characteristics of some members the genus Vernonia namely; amygdalina Del. (bitter variety), (non-bitter cinerea (L) Less., galamensis (Cass.) adoensis Sch. Bip. in Jos, Nigeria was investigated to provide additional characters support existing taxonomic information regarding species. Epidermal peels fresh leaves were made transverse sections petioles cut ...

This paper deals with the pharmacognosy of Hyptis suaveolens leaf including its morphological, anatomical, chemical constituents and powder analysis. Contrary to earlier reports, the leaves are amphistomatic. Stomata are diacytic, a few being isotricytic and ansiotricytic. Four types of trichomes have been noted. The venation is semicraspidodromous. Midrib consists of one large moon shaped and ...

genetic diversity is essential in the implementation of breeding programs. in order to determine genetic diversity, factor analysis and heritability of yield and some morphological traits, 20 strawberry cultivars were studied at the agricultural station of kurdistan research center using a randomized complete block design with three replications. morphological characteristics such as number of ...

Stipules are leaf structures common in many groups of plants that can take a variety of forms. In Gentianales, interpetiolar stipules are considered a synapomorphy of Rubiaceae; however, some reports in the literature refer to their presence in other families. The goal of this study was to analyze the development of leaf primordia to investigate the possible presence of reduced or modified stip...
