Cuscuta campestris Yunck. Morphology, Anatomy and Traditional Use in Turkey
Abstract
Cuscuta (doder) is an achlorophyllous plant which parasites their host stem via haustoria and obtain their nutrients from them. Cuscuta seed and aerial part have extensive use in traditional medicine of Asian countries, especially in China. This genus generally called with various vernacular names and used for liver treatment in Turkey. In this study, we clarify general distribution, morphology, anatomy, seed and pollen micromorphology of Cuscuta campestris in detail. Anatomical study of reduced vegetative structure did not provide any diagnostic character while, fruit and flower morphology beside seed ornamentation and tricolpate pollen provided valuable evidence to identification of this species.
