Differences observed in micromorphological features of Portulaca species found in India are smaller size of stomata, ordinary epidermal cell to be polygonal with sinuous anticlinal walls, and P quadrifida to be epistomatic with isodiametric epidermal cells on the abaxial surface.
In the external cuticle layers in both cultivars, numerous sites exhibited cracks and penetration of the cuticle into anticlinal and inner periclinal epidermis walls, which increased the thickness of this tissue (Figures 7(a)-7(d)).
A su vez, las celulas epidermicas en vista superficial generan ornamentaciones con disenos a modo de"puzzles" debido al contorno de su pared anticlinal; estas celulas varian en su forma, ya que pueden ser desde aproximadamente circulares u ovaladas hasta francamente elongadas.
South of the Surghar Range in the footwall of the Surghar Fault a series of anticlinal and synclinal folds constitute the structural geometry of this domain (Fig.7).
Epidermis and cortex (Figure 3C and D) are maintained during secondary growth through anticlinal division and cells tangential elongation; parenchymatous pith shows in this stage cells with thick secondary walls and simple pits.
