9.LEAF ANATOMICAL STUDIES IN SOME SPECIES OF CONVOLVULACEAE By S.K. TAYADE AND D.A. PATIL
Abstract
The present paper reports internal structure in 12 species belonging to seven genera of Convolvulaceae.
They are surveyed for various anatomical features with respect to epidermis, mesophyll and midrib
region. The leaves are generally dorsiventral. The vascular tissue received in the midrib region is
generally resolved into an arc. the arc is generally crescent-shaped and cup-shaped in few cases. The arcs
are generally prominent and bicollateral. The vascular arc is usually capped abaxially by
sclerenchymatous layers. In most of the species, it is single layered. In few cases, it is one or two layered.
Sometimes, trichomes occur in some species on the epidermis.
