S. K. Tayade, D. A. Patil, S S Pathak

Abstract :

<p> The paper deals with form, structure and distribution of foliar trichomes in 11 species belonging to 6 genera of the Convolvulaceae. They are generally distributed on both foliar surface in intercostal and on and/or along the midveins and veinlets. They are unicellular or multicellular and belong to six small categories viz., unicellular cylindrical, unicellular conical, unicellular filiform, two-armed and unicellular three-armed, multicellular peltate scales. All are eglandular. Trichome stomata relationship and frequency are also given. The paper also sheds light on trichome types in the allied families of the Convolvulaceae and discusses their taxonomic significance in the alliance.</p>
