Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Some plant organs modifies greatly by morphological and anatomical features, the most common types are spines, tenderils and phylloclades to function as supplementary organs for specific functions. The goal of the present study is to explore the anatomical features of some metamorphosed plant organ to clarify its anatomical adaptation in relation to its function. Four plant taxa were collected with different metamorphosed organs that investigated anatomically. The obtained results revealed that all of the studied metamorphosed organs were adapted anatomically to perform their specific functions. Keywords: Anatomy, Morphology, Plant metamorphosis.
