Study Notes
Medicinal Plants Lecture 5
- The lecture was given by Dr. Amal F. Soliman, Associate Professor of Pharmacognosy, and Dr. Walaa Safwat, Lecturer of Pharmacognosy.
- The lecture was for the 2024/2025 academic year.
- The lecture covered medicinal plants.
Plant Anatomy Quiz
- The quiz involved labeling parts of a transverse section (TS) of a plant.
- The Casparian strips in the endodermis are located on the cell walls.
- The type of vascular bundles was also included in questions.
Anatomy of Primary Plant Organs
- Leaves: The main photosynthetic system of the plant.
- Stems: Support the plant body, transport nutrients, and protect against predators and diseases.
- Roots: Absorb water and dissolved nutrients, anchor the plant, and defend against soilborne pathogens.
Dicot Stem
- Vascular bundles (V.B.) are arranged in a single ring around the pith.
- The cortex, pith, pericycle, and endodermis are distinct features.
- Hypodermis is largely collenchyma.
Monocot Stem
- Vascular bundles (V.B.) are numerous and scattered throughout the ground tissue.
- The cortex, pith, pericycle, and endodermis are not distinct in monocot stems.
- Hypodermis is largely sclerenchyma.
Anatomy of Leaves
- Leaf: The main photosynthetic system of the plant.
- Leaf Parts: Includes the upper epidermis, palisade mesophyll, spongy mesophyll, vascular tissue (xylem/phloem), stomata, guard cells, and cuticle.
- Leaf Types: Dicot and Monocot leaves have structural differences.
Leaf Venation
- Parallel Venation: A common type in monocot leaves with parallel veins.
- Reticulate Venation: A common type in dicot leaves with a net-like pattern of veins.
Internal Structure of Monocot and Dicot leaves
- Diagrams and descriptions of the structure of leaves, highlighting different layers and components.
- Monocot and dicot leaf structures are examined in detail.
