TI  - ANATOMY OF THE ENDEMIC ALYSSUM PATERI SUBSP. PATERI
AB  - Objective: Alyssum pateri Nyár. subsp. pateri is an endemic plant known as "kanatlı kevke" in Türkiye. The plant is perennial and in semi-shrub form. The plant is traditionally used externally in the treatment of rheumatism in Bingöl (Türkiye). Microscopic analysis of the anatomical structures of plants can provide useful information for taxonomic classification. Light microscopy analysis is a widely used and effective method for the identification of medicinal plants. In this study, the anatomical features of the A. pateri subsp. pateri were examined. Material and Method: The plant material was collected from Ankara (Türkiye). The samples were protected in 70% alcohol. The cross and surface sections were cut by hand with a razor blade into microscopic preparation form. A Leica DM 4000B microscope was used for anatomical analysis and micro photographs. Result and Discussion: The anatomical characters of the leaf, petiole and stem of the Alyssum pateri subsp. pateri were revealed. The leaf is dorsiventral and contains 1-2 rows of palisade parenchyma. Cruciferous stomata and stellate hairs are located on the lower epidermis. The petiole cross-section is sulcate and stellate hairs are observed in the epidermal layer. The main vein is arc-shaped and is accompanied by lateral veins. The stem is disc-shaped. Stem epidermis contains stellate hairs. The interfascicular tissue between the xylem strands of the vascular bundles is composed lignified cells. Vascular bundles are surrounded by a pericyclic sclerenchymatous cap.
