Forking Pattern of Carpophore in Some Himalayan Umbellifers

Dr Neena Sharma

Abstract :

Evaluation of fruit morphology of 48 taxa of Himalayan Umbelliferae belonging to different tribes and all the three sub families of Apiacae(sensu Drude, 1898) through stereo microscope has revealed that the development of a free carpophore is extensively visible in taxa of the sub family Apioidae. It exhibits varied degree of forking at maturity and facilitates complete separation and improved mechanism for dissemination of the mericarps.
