Diagnostic and systematic significance of petiole anatomy in the identification of Hopea species (Dipterocarpaceae)

A comprehensive study of the petiole anatomy of 33 species of the genus Hopea Roxb., belonging to the family Dipterocarpaceae, was carried out to examine variations in the petiole anatomy that might be useful in the identification and classification of the various species. The variations observed in...
