Full TextAbstract
This study has examined, morphological and scape and leaf anatomical characteristics of seven Bellevalia species from sections Nutans and Conica growing in Iran. At first, morphological characters was assessed to identify species. Then for anatomical study, transverse sections of the mature fresh or dried scape base and leaf were prepared and stained by differential staining. Morphological results showed no significant feature to identify species. Anatomically, a few differences were noticed in vascular bundle shape and arrangement, and the type of leaf mesophyll among the species but they were not useful to recognize species circumscription.
