MICROMORPHOLOGY OF CYPSELA  IN THE TRIBE PLUCHEEAE  FROM PAKISTAN

RUBINA ABID AND M. QAISER

Abstract: Micromorphological characters of 4 genera (Doellia Sch.-Bip., Laggera Sch.-Bip. ex C. Koch, Pluchea Cass. and Pseudoconyza Cuatrec.) and 7 specific and infra specific taxa in the tribe Plucheeae were examined from Pakistan by light and scanning electron microscopes. Cypsela  characters support the taxonomic decisions, as all the taxa are clearly segregated on the basis of their distinguishable characters except that of the two subspecies of Pluchea arguta.
