TY - JOUR TI - An anatomical ınvestigation on Bupleurum heldreichii Boiss. & Bal. and Bupleurum lophocarpum Boiss. & Bal. (Apiaceae) from Turkey AB - The anatomical characteristics of Bupleurum heldreichii Boiss. & Bal. and Bupleurum lophocarpum Boiss. & Bal. taxa which are endemic for Turkey of Bupleurum genus belonging to Apiaceae family have been investigated in this study. Anatomical studies were carried out the cross sections of vegetative organs of studied taxa. Also, transverse sections of leaves were taken by hand and stomata were examined and stomata index were calculated. B. heldreichii is characterized with peridermis in roots, narrow pith region in stems, equifacial mesophyll and sinuous epidermis cell walls in leaves. In spite of this B. lophacarpum has epidermis in its roots, large pith region in its stems, equifacial mesophyll, and smooth epidermis cell walls in its leaves. Besides, anatomical measurements and calculations about Bupleurum heldreichii and Bupleurum lophocarpum were given in table and the similarities and the differences between taxa have been discussed.
