Summary of leaf anatomy (German)

Versteifungselemente linienförmig am Blattrand. Leitbündel freistehend. Leitbündelhülle nicht verholzt.

Summary of stem anatomy (German)

Umriss rund oder oval. Leitbündel in einer Reihe. Konische Stützen. Epidermiszellen mit Papillen.

Description

Culm-diameter 0.5-1 mm, wall large, radius of culm in relation to wall thickness approximately 1: 0.5. Outline circular with a smooth surface. Culm-center hollow and surrounded by many large thin-walled, not lignified cells. Culm-center full, containing unlignified cells. Epidermis cells inside thin, peripheral thicker-walled (lignified). Large vascular bundles arranged in one peripheral row. Chlorenchyma in round, oval, square or rectangular groups. Groups of sclerenchyma square or rectangular. Sclerenchymatic sheath around vascular bundles bilateral, large at both radial ends. Vessels arrangement in vascular bundles in lateral position. Largest vessel in the bundle small, < 20μm. Cavities (intercellulars) between parenchyma-cells round, oval or radial. Distinct cavities (intercellulars) in the protoxylem area of vascular bundles. Crystals absent.

  • Disclaimer
    InfoFlora compiles information on protected species as accurately as possible, taking it from the respective cantonal laws. In some cases, however, it was not possible to use the plant names as listed in the original text, but an interpretation of their taxonomy or nomenclature was necessary. The exact meaning of the categories „completely protected“ and „partially protected“ differs among the cantons.

    InfoFlora cannot guarantee that the information on the protection status is correct and complete. In case of doubts, we recommend to look up the texts of the respective cantonal law.
