Floral and Leaf Anatomy of Hibiscus Species | Semantic Scholar (2024)

F foliar epidermis of all four species of Tephrosia revealed that all micro morphological characters of leaf shows inter specific relationship among the species, which could be remarkable and reassuring taxonomic tool in delimitation of these species.

Variations that occur indicate plasticity phenomenon in crested flowers, and further research is needed to find out the main factors causing variations incrested flower ovaries.

The real crested of H. rosa-sinensis is an intermediate-like form, and the form of crested peach could be divided into three groups:crested peach that resembles a single flower (crested single-like), which resembles a double flower ( crested double- like), and a transitional between single- like and double-like flower (Crested intermediate- like).

The obtained results indicated that the petiole length, leaf blade shape, base and apex varied between the studied taxa and the resulted dendrogram shows great similarity between the taxa with the separation of both Malva aegyptia and Althaea ludwigii each in a separate clade.

The obtained data about changes in activity of peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, content of photosynthetic pigments and flavonoids, and level of lipid peroxidation indicate the low heat resistance of R. donetzica in comparison with the other two species.

Hibiscus micranthus is a medicinal plant leaf explant culture good amount results from callus for the histochemical, which might be useful for the production of disease free and healthy plant materials.

The nutritional value, phytochemical and physicochemical properties and microbial counts of hibiscus flowers (both fresh and dry) are estimated and the physico–chemical parameters like total ash, acid insoluble ash, water soluble ash and sulphated ash were found to be high in dried flowers than fresh flowers.

An analysis of the root and leave anatomical features studied showed that these taxa possessed vital characteristic that could be attached to other taxonomic information and used in their description hence the biosystematic implication of this finding have been discussed in the light of the current literature.

The structure and development of mucilage-crystal idioblasts in the roots of five Actinidia species are comparable and large, empty cells observed in outer regions of phloem in substantially thickened roots may represent a late stage in idioblast development.

Although the three subsidiary cells adjacent to the guard cells eventually divided, they did so noticeably later than did regular epidermal cells, and in excised leaves guard-cell degeneration was relatively infrequent, and apparently normal stomata, however, occurred within the region of active division.

A census of all the presently accepted taxa, the geographical distribution of each taxon, and chromosome numbers and genome designations of the 49 taxa for which the information is available is included.

The differences in growth associated with trichome morphology occurred too late to provide a competitive advantage to sticky plants and probably contribute little to the maintenance of D. wrightii'strichome dimorphism.

Dr. Dalziel's volume is an attempt to fill this gap in knowledge of the West African flora as a supplement to the "Flora of West Tropical Africa"recently completed by Dr. Hutchinson and himself.

The purpose of this review is to present an overview of plant crystal idioblasts and Ca oxalate crystals and to include the most recent literature.
