Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Accession 1 had the highest stomatal density of Ipomoea carnea on the abaxial leaf surface.
- Observation Accession 1 had the lowest stomatal size of Ipomoea carnea on the abaxial leaf surface.
- Observation Accession 2 had the lowest stomatal density of Ipomoea carnea on the adaxial leaf surface.
- Observation Accession 2 had the highest stomatal size of Ipomoea carnea on the adaxial leaf surface.
- Observation Curved anticlinal cell wall patterns with polygonal epidermal cell shapes were observed in Ipomoea carnea.
- Recommendation Stomatal features could be used for classification and identification of the plant (author interpretation).
- Association Cylocytic stomata with large stomatal sizes greatly helped in the delimitation of Ipomoea carnea.
- Recommendation Trichomes could be used for adaptation purposes in Ipomoea carnea (author interpretation).
