Anatomical structure of the stem and leaf of Daphne glomerata Lam.

The present work describes morphological and microstructural characteristics of the stems and leaves of Daphne glomerata Lam. studied by light microscopy. This investigation provides referential anatomical information for correct identification of this species. Structural peculiarities of the stem and leaf identified during the study such as the shape and interposition of the leaf’s epidermal cells, type and position of stomata, structure of the leaf’s parenchyma, structure of the vascular tissue, provide valuable information for the correct identification of Daphne glomerata Lam. plant material.
