Other claims from this paper (15)
- Observation Leaf epidermal cells on both upper and lower leaf surfaces were polygonal, irregular or hexagonal with thick cell walls in Bignoniaceae.
- Observation Anticlinal cell walls in Bignoniaceae showed three patterns: curved, straight and sinuous.
- Observation Kigelia africana has sunken stomata.
- Observation Jacaranda mimosaefolia has sunken stomata.
- Observation Oroxylum indicum, Pyrostegia venusta and Tecoma stans have anomocytic stomata.
- Observation Tecomella undulata, Mansoa alliacea and Heterophragma adenophylla have anomocytic stomata.
