LEAF EPIDERMAL STUDIES OF Talinum triangulare

LEAF EPIDERMAL STUDIES OF Talinum triangulare (JACQ) WILD

ABSTRACT The structure of stomata in Talinum triangulare were examined to determine the development pathway of stomata in the leaves. Mature leaves were peeled, stained with safranin–o and examined under the microscope. Clear photo-micrographs were taken with binocular research microscope (Amscope) filled with Amcope digital camera. The mature stomata were paracytic in nature. The stomata
