Anatomical studies on endemic Lycium anatolicum A. Baytop et R. Mill (solanaceae) vegetative organs, distributed in Turkey

In this study, the species, Lycium anatolicum A. Baytop et R. Mill which is an endemic for Turkey has been investigated anatomically. Researchs have been carried out in different regions of Şanlıurfa, which locates in the C7 square according to the grid system in the Flora of Turkey. In anatomical studies, It’s the first time that, the cross-sections taken from the stem and leaves have been investigated The surface sections taken from abaxial and adaxial parts of the leaves have been examined. In anatomical sections, stem and leaves aren’t hair. In the stem; the primary vascular tissue is bicollateral The leaves are amphistomatic and mesophylles are isobilateral. The type of stomata is anisocytic or anomocytic. Parenchymatic pith contains the grains of starch.
