This study compared the foliar anatomy of Silene takesimensis, an endemic species to South Korea, using microscopic techniques. The leaf morphological traits were examined to distinguish the species from others, and variations in quantitative characteristics were found to be significant. The study supported the systematics of the genus Silene and identified significant taxonomic characteristics in the foliar epidermal anatomy of the endemic species S. takesimensis.
This study used the foliar epidermal anatomical characteristics through microscopic techniques to compare the foliar anatomy of Silene takesimensis Uyeki & Sakata (Caryophyllaceae). The species is endemic to South Korea. This study examined the foliar epidermal anatomical traits. The leaf morphological traits of the species are essential to distinguish the species from other taxa. The comparative systemic significance of the character species was examined. The epidermal cell shape, the epidermal cell wall, and the number of lobes per cell were among the distinctive foliar anatomical characteristics. The variations in quantitative characteristics were significant. The systematics of the genus Silene were supported by various microscopic methods. The foliar epidermal anatomical characteristics of the endemic species S. takesimensis have significant taxonomic characteristics to differentiate the species.
