Microstructural Feature of Salvia verticillata L. vegetative and generative organs

Abstract

It has been studied perspective medicinal plant Salvia verticillata L. aboveground parts vegetative and generative organs internal features.  The aboveground parts of the plant are intensively lined with conical, multicellular (2-7) and glandular spherical trichomes; In the covering tissue of the leaf blade, stalk, and stem the ventilation system is represented by diacytic type stomata. The leaf is bifacial, amphistomatic in terms of the location of the ventilation system, while the pulp is characterized by a dorsiventral structure. In the internal structure of Salvia verticillata aboveground parts coexistence of the plate type collenchyma, polygonal structure primary parenchyma, bast fibre and collenchyma tissue  are represented. Collateral-type vascular bundles reflected in the stem, leaf stalk, and midrib; The wood is differentiated into longitudinally arranged, spherically shaped vessels and tracheal elements, vascular tissue one -and two spiral, with porous tracheid wall thickening.
