Abstract
Verbascum globiferumHub.-Mor. and V. lysiosepalum Hub.-Mor.are endemic to Turkey which is a center of endemism for Verbascum species. This study gives the anatomical, palynological and seed micromorphological features of V. globiferum and V. lysiosepalumwhich grow in Diyarbakır.The xylem elements occupy a large area in the root cross-sections of the species. In stem cross-sections, the upper part of the epidermis cells is surrounded by a separate cuticle layer and the pith region covers a large area. In the leaves, the main vein is shapped as collateral bundle. Pollen grains are tricolporate-tricolpate, oblate-spheroidal, and exine ornamentation is reticulate. Seeds are brown and oblong-ovate to prismatic and alveolate. The seed coat ornamentation is irregular with polygonal cells, with densely, distinct vesicles.The capsules are pubescent, covered with stellate and branched hairy or glandular hairs.The seed displayed that substantial taxonomic understanding can be acquired from examining the seed characteristics of Verbascum, particularly at the species level.

Verbascum globiferumHub.-Mor.和 V. lysiosepalum Hub.-Mor.是土耳其的特有种,而土耳其是马鞭草物种的特有中心。本研究给出了生长在迪亚巴克尔的 V. globiferum 和 V. lysiosepalum 的解剖学、古植物学和种子微形态特征。在茎的横切面上,表皮细胞的上半部分被独立的角质层包围,髓区占地面积很大。在叶片中,主脉呈带状侧束。花粉粒为三孢子三胞,扁球形,外皮装饰呈网状。种子褐色,长圆状卵形到棱形,具小凹槽。蒴果有短柔毛,被星状和分枝的有毛或腺毛覆盖。该种子表明,通过研究马鞭草的种子特征,尤其是种的特征,可以对分类学有很大的了解。孟加拉植物分类学杂志》。30(2):201-212,2023 年(12 月)
期刊介绍:
Bangladesh is a humid, subtropical country favouring luxuriant growth of microorganisms, fungi and plants from algae to angiosperms with rich diversity. She has the largest mangrove forest of the world in addition to diverse hilly and wetland habitats. More than a century back, foreign explorers endeavoured several floral expeditions, but little was done for non-vasculars and pteridophytes. In recent times, Bangladesh National Herbarium has been carrying out taxonomic research in Bangladesh along with few other national institutes (e.g. Department of Botany of public universities and Bangladesh Forest Research Institute).
