The upper and the lower epidermises of Artemisia abrotanum introduced in Zhytomyr Polissya are covered with cuticle. The leaf blades are amphistomatic, with oval anomocytic stomata. On adaxial and abaxial epidermal surfaces present indumentary trichomes of various types. In particular, there are located oval multi-cellular glandular trichomes, which are typical for Asteraceae. Secretory tissues of internal secretion are represented by essential oil containers. Leaf blade of A. abrotanum has isobilateral structure with collateral vascular bundles. A. abrotanum reveals certain xeromorphic traits: small and compact leaves, presence of covering trichomes, more developed palisade parenchyma in comparison with spongy one, and thick walls of epidermal cells. Investigated secretory structures and non-glandular trichomes are considered taxonomical characters and can be applied for identification of pharmaceutical raw material of A. abrotanum.

The Caucasian species, Pyrus demetrii Kuth. has been reported from Turkey for the first time. The species was collected by the authors from both Georgia and Turkey. Leaf epidermis characters were studied by scanning electron microscopy to evaluate cuticle ornamentation, waxes and other relevant features of micromorphology.

The article represents a comparative anatomical analysis of leaves of Rhododendron makinoi, R. degronianum, R. callimorphum and R. brachycarpum. It was shown that leaves of R. makinoi have most pronounced xerophytic features. R. degronianum and R. makinoi are similar by most of morphometric characteristics, while R. callimorphum and R. brachycarpum are well distinguishable. However, some quantitative parameters of the leaf with statistically significant difference in R. makinoi and R. degronianum have been detected and can be used as additional criteria for their taxonomic distinguishing. In general, investigated species differ mostly by type and number of trichomes. The presence of small idioblasts in the studied species was ascertained.

The types of glandular trichomes and their distribution on the vegetative and reproductive organs of Lamium orientale (syn. Wiedemannia orientalis) are studied for systematic purposes in this paper. Two morphologically different types of glandular trichomes (peltate and capitate) are described. Peltate trichomes are characterized by a short stalk, which is connected with a large spherical head composed of four cells in a single layer. Capitate glandular trichomes are subdivided into capitate type A and capitate type B. On the vegetative organs peltate trichomes are abundant, while on reproductive organs capitate trichomes are numerous and the peltate trichomes are rare or absent.

Silene (Caryophyllaceae) is a large genus with about 700 species distributed worldwide. Auriculatae is the largest section of this genus with 21 endemic species represented in Iran. Seed micromorphology of S. commelinifolia, S. lucida, S. nurensis and S. eremicana from 18 populations was studied by the light microscopy. As a result, 6 populations were adopted for further SEM studies. A great variation was observed in seed shape and size, lateral and peripheral surfaces of seeds, and shape of testa cells edge. Totally, 16 quantitative and qualitative seed features were measured and evaluated. Seed size varied from 1.28 × 1.43 mm in Alvand population of S. eremicana, to 1.97 × 1.50 mm in Bozghosh population of S. lucida. PAST and SPSS software was applied to demonstrate the species relationships. S. eremicana and S. lucida were closely grouped, which is in accordance with their morphological similarities. Seed micromorphology revealed that the species, which are similar to S. commelinifolia are clearly separated from each other. Therefore seed morphology is of taxonomic importance in the studied group.

Chenopodiastrum badachschanicum (Tzvelev) S. Fuentes, Uotila et Borsch has been recently reported (as Chenopodium badachschanicum Tzvelev) from Iran in the article published in Modern Phytomorphology. Unfortunately, the article contains some errors and outdated information on taxonomy of this species. Most importantly, the image of herbarium specimens reproduced in the article definitely represents not C. badachschanicum but, undoubtedly, a species of Spinacia L., most probably S. turkestanica Iljin. Judging from its distribution pattern, C. badachschanicum may be expected in Iran, especially in eastern mountain areas. However, there is no positive evidence of its occurrence in Iran yet and its recent record is based on a misidentification.
最近在《现代植物形态学》杂志上报道了来自伊朗的Chenopodiastrum badachschanicum (Tzvelev) S. Fuentes, Uotila et Borsch的一篇文章(作为Chenopodium badachschanicum Tzvelev)。不幸的是,这篇文章包含了一些错误和过时的分类信息。最重要的是,文章中复制的植物标本图像肯定不是C. badachschanicum,而无疑是Spinacia L.的一种,最有可能是S. turkestanica Iljin。从其分布格局来看,在伊朗,特别是东部山区,可能会有badachschanicum。然而,目前还没有确凿的证据表明它在伊朗发生过,而且它最近的记录是基于错误的识别。

Microstructure of abaxial epidermis of lemma is presented for 26 accessions of Avena strigosa of different geographical origin and for some other oat diploids. Papillae and duplexes of cork and silica cells are main morphogenetic events in the oat lemma. A. canariensis and A. longiglumis, characterized by a meristemoid activity of the lemma, are situated in an ordination space outside of the A. strigosa group, while a cultivated species A. brevis is among accessions of A. strigosa. The meristemoidal activity of the lemma abaxial epidermis appeared to be a useful taxonomic marker for oat diploids.

Evaluation of the structure of the caryopsis transfer system is presented for an Avena magna × A. longiglumis amphiploid. Each component of the system such as vascular bundle, pigment strand, nucellar projection and ventral aleurone layer varies between the amphiploid and its parental species. The number of xylem vessels present in the caryopsis bundle expressed heterosis-like inheritance. The position of the caryopsis xylem bundle in A. longiglumis shows a lower efficiency in assimilate transport. Some anomalies in the development of the ventral aleurone layer and parenchyma, adjacent to the transfer system, are presented.
