THE CELLULAR STRUCTURE OF THE FOLIAR LIMBS OF SPONTANEOUS SEDUM TELEPHIUM SSP. MAXIMUM (L.) KROCK PLANTS HARVESTED FROM NATURE
Journal Title: Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Alexandru Ioan Cuza din Iasi, Serie noua, Sectiunea II a. Biologie vegetala - Year 2013, Vol 59, Issue 2
Abstract
We investigated structural aspects of cells of the Sedum telephium L. ssp. maximum (L.) Krock foliar limbs, plant that belongs to the Crassulaceae family. These plants were grown under natural conditions. Our research allowed us to evidence at the level of leaf mesophyll cells spheroid fibrillary bodies present in the vacuolar juice and calcium oxalate crystals by using the optical microscope and the transmission electron microscopy (TEM). These fibrillary bodies seem to be mucilage, which is characteristic of the plants belonging to the Crassulaceae family, the biological role of these organic components being less known.
