Leaf teeth in certain Salicaceae and 'Flacourtiaceae'

The leaf teeth glands in four taxa from Salicaceae and six from 'Flacourtiaceae' were examined using both light and scanning electron microscopes. There appears to be a progression from glands of simple structure in the flacourtiaceous taxa and a tendency to a more complicated development in morphology and anatomy of the salicaceous species.  © 2007 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2007, 155 , 241–256.
