Abstract

The present study was carried out to determine the micro-morphology of some species of Dichanthium Willemet (Poaceae) from Maharashtra. Species of Dichanthium were collected from the different localities of Maharashtra for detailed micro-morphological study. Epidermal studies pertains to epidermal cell size, presence and absence of micro-hairs, papillae, its types of silica bodies of species of Dichanthium. All the 7 studied members show the variation in the types and arrangement of the epidermal cells of leaf.
