survival rate associated with AP. To date, little information is available on the temporal changes in root morphology, physiology, and anatomy of seedlings in response to AP. Platycladus orientalis (L.). Franco, a native Chinese Cupressaceae plant, is among
unintended clonal variability. Several strategies have been used to assess the clonal fidelity of TC derived plants of several fruit species but with limited success ( Debnath, 2008 ). Phenotypic identification based on morphological traits is influenced by
content and morphological traits; therefore, such research will facilitate rapid and accurate selection of parental genotypes for further genetic improvement. Morphological characterization was initially carried out in Venezuela, where variation in
of different morphological characters of zucchini squash with yield. The yield of zucchini squash was positively correlated ( Figs. 2–15 ) with fruit length ( R 2 = 0.8645), fruit diameter ( R 2 = 0.9448), number of male flowers ( R 2 = 0
limited amount of photographic data were provided for further interpretation. Although these studies provide information about the presence of various secretory cells and products in mature tissues, they do not consider the developmental morphology and
leaf morphology and physiology scale up to whole plant and canopy scales ( Monteith, 1989 ). Our objective was to assess the transpiration response among genotypes of a common horticulture tree crop through investigation of the leaf
Trichomes usually root in epidermal cells and present everywhere at all times in many plant families. They exhibit a high level of multiplicity in morphology, cellular structure, and function ( Uphof, 1962 ). Because the morphological and mechanical
as CTL and defined the ratio of CTL to RFL as CTMD ( Fig. 2 ). We included the use of CTMD as a morphological index to aid in defining petal type. In general, the ray floret shape of chrysanthemum is referred to as petal type and includes not only the
culture potential through shoot apex culture and somatic embryogenesis. Among the clonally propagated plants through shoot, apex of one the accessions (PI 636107) was a single plant that was morphologically different from all the rest. This particular
flower water deficit is poorly understood. The objectives of our study, then, were as follows: a) to investigate the stomatal distributions on the leaves, stems, and flowers of cut ‘Master’ carnations; b) to characterize SD, morphology, and light
