Morphological and Anatomical Study on Gladiolus antakiensis A. P. Hamilton and Gladiolus atroviolaceus Boiss. (Iridacee)
Abstract
The study is based on anatomical andmorphological investigations of Gladiolus antakiensis A. P. Hamiltonand Gladiolus atroviolaceus Boiss. Morphological and anatomical features of vegatative organs of the plant such as root, scape, and leaf have been given in detail and demonstrated by gures. It has been observed that cormtunic is coarsely reticulate brous in these two species. Sand crystals have been observed in G. antakiensis species. Sclerenchyma groups have been observed around leaf vascular bundle in both of species. Most of the anatomical properties of both species are similar to the other member of Iridaceae family.
