Characteristics and correlations of leaf stomata in different Aleurites montana provenances.

ABSTRACT: Stomata are important indexes in studies of plant origin, evolution, and classification and are important organs in plant phylogenetic relationship studies. Nine Aleurites montana provenances were used in this study to examine stomatal density, stomatal area, stomatal perimeter, long axis length, and short axis length. The correlation and cluster analyses were conducted among the morphological parameters of the pores. The results showed that there were significant differences in different A. Montana provenances in terms of stomatal morphology parameters. The average stomatal density, stomatal area, stomatal perimeter, stomatal long axis length, and stomatal short axis length of each provenance was between 224.16-307.10 stomata/mm2, 80.42-99.76 μm, 36.39-41.32 μm, 15.89-18.44 μm, and 6.53-7
