Anatomy
Summary of stem anatomy (German)
Umriss rund oder oval. Grosse runde oder ovale Intercellularen. Epidermiszellen nicht verholzt.Description
Center full, radius of culm in relation to wall thickness 1:1 Outline circular with a smooth surface. Epidermis smooth. Epidermis cells thin-walled all around. Chlorenchyma present, continuous peripheral belt with unlignified round cells (like a large cortex). One vascular bundle in the center. Sheath around vascular bundles absent or not lignified. Vessels in vascular bundles around the phloem not to recognize in normal light. Without vessels in vascular bundles, xylem and phloem not well differentiated. Cavities (intercellulars) between parenchyma cells round, oval or radial. Cavities in the center of the central cylinder.Distribution map

- 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.
