Morpho-histogenic studies of the fruit wall ofArgemone mexicanaL. (papaveraceae)

Abstract: The spiny capsule of Argemone mexicana develops from a unilocular ovary with numerous ovules borne on parietal placentae. The ovary wall comprises a layer of outer epidermis and inner epidermis each with 12 to 14 layered ground parenchyma or mesoderm in between. The epicarp, which develops from the outer epidermis of the developing pericarp, possesses numerous anomocytic type of stomata, but no trichomes. The deep lying mesodermal layers form the mesocarp, which embed pericarpic vascular bundles and their tang… Show more

“…Triglyceride was reported as a nematicidal compound in seeds of Argemone mexicana. Sanguinarine is a quaternary benzophenanthridine alkaloid with a strong bactericidal effect on Gram-positive bacteria (Rao and Dave, 2001) which may confer protection against diverse pathogens (Facchini, 2001). Sanguinarine and other identified alkaloids in Argemone include berberine, protopine and coptisine may cause nematicidal effects (Facchini, 2001).…”
