| description | An anatomical study was carry out on 14 taxa belonging to Selaginellaceae in an attempt to study their stipe anatomical
characteristics and to provide anatomical data for the selected taxa in Selaginellaceae. Out of 29 taxa of Selaginellaceae
recorded in Peninsular Malaysia, 14 taxa have been selected namely Selaginella alutacia, S. argentea, S. frondosa, S.
intermedia var. intermedia, S. intermedia var. dolichocentrus, S. mayeri, S. morganii, S. ornata, S. plana, S. polita, S.
roxburghii var. roxburghii, S. stipulata, S. wallichii and S. willdenowii. Method used in this study is sectioning using
sliding microtome. Findings in this study have shown that Selaginellaceae species studied can be cluster into two groups,
based on the stipe stellar systems, which are monostelic and tristelic groups. There are some variations exist in the cross
sections of the stipes of the same species due to the presence and absence of the leaf trace. Each species is prove to have
distinct stipe anatomical characteristics that can be used to differentiate species in Selaginellaceae. |
