Abstract:
Cypsela morphology of 10 taxa
belonging to the tribe Inuleae of the family Asteraceae was examined
using light and scanning electron microscopy. The taxa included
representatives of the genera Pegolettia Cass., Varthemia
DC., Asteriscus Torn.ex Mill., Carpesium L., and Blumea
DC. Cypsela micromorphological characters are found taxonomically
significant both at generic and specific levels. Department of Botany,University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan. |
