Embryological studies in anredera cordifolia (Ten.) steenis (basellaceae)
This paper deals with the ovule and anther structure, sporogenesis, and gametogenesis of Anreda cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis. The conclusions are: the anther wall develops according to the Monocotyledonous type of DAVIS (1966). The tapetum is secretory and the endothecial cells develop U-form thickenin...
