Leaf anatomical studies of Eugenia L. (Myrtaceae) species from the Malay Peninsula

Abstract: KHATIJAH, H. H., CUTLER, D. F. & MOORE, D. M., 1992. Leaf anatomical studies of Eugenia L. species from the Malay Peninsula. The leaf and petiole anatomy of 25 Malaysian species of Eugenia L. sensu lato was investigated to determine the value of vegetative anatomy for the identification of non‐flowering material. Twelve characters proved useful for the identification of species: type of stomata; shape of leaves in T.S.; shape of midrib bundle; sclerenchyma sheath; cutinization of outer epidermal wall; presence… Show more

“…Metcalf and Chalk (1950) [3] supported this truth when they pointed that stomata in Myrtaceae are usually ranunculaceous except in a few species. [11,19] found nearly similar types when they observed three types of stomata: anomocytic, paracytic and anisocytic. Larger number of epidermal cells is often recorded on the upper epidermis ranging between 127.2 and 420 cells/mm 2 , while it was ranging between 132 and 302 cells/mm 2 on the lower epidermis in Callistemon vimi-nalis and Syzygium aromaticum respectively i.e.…”

“…Tais resultados corroboram as observações deste estudo. Além disso, o feixe vascular, associado às fibras esclerenquimáticas em forma de arco com extremidades curvas, confere maior resistência à estrutura, característica presente em outras espécies do gênero (HUSSIN et al, 1992;FONTENELLE et al, 1994;JORGE et al, 1994;HARON e MOORE, 1996).…”

“…Diferentes táxons de Myrtaceae foram examinados em sua anatomia foliar (Backes 1971;Behar 1971;Lucas 1971;Sousa 1971;Johnson 1980;Keating 1984;Machado et al 1988;Hussin et al 1992;Fontenelle et al 1993;Callado 1997;Gomes & Neves 1997;Arruda & Fontenelle 1994;Jorge et al 1994;2000;Cardoso & Sajo 2004), podendo fornecer importantes dados para a construção de filogenias.…”
