10.FOLIAR ANATOMY OF SOME UNINVESTIGATED SPECIES OF CONVOLVULACEAE By S.K. TAYADE AND D.A. PATIL
Abstract
The present paper communicates leaf anatomy of some species of Convolvulaceae.In all, seven genera
and thirteen species have been surveyed for anatomical features in detail. They have been investigated
regarding epidermis, mesophyll and midrib region. The leaves are generally bifacial. The vascular tissue
received in the midrib region is generally resolved into an arc. The arc is mostly crescent-shaped and cupshaped
in few cases. The arcs are generally prominent and bicollateral. The vascular arc is generally
capped abaxially by sclerenchymatous layers. It is single layered, however in few cases, it is one or two
layered. Sometimes, trichomes occur in some species on the epidermis.
