Abstract

The morphological, anatomical, micro-morphological features and geographical distribution of Vaccaria Wolf. have been studied on plant samples collected from different northern and middle Iraqi districts where the plants usually grow, In general, the morphological results were similar with the description of the genus in Iraqi flora but with more details, the micro-morphological features of each seeds and pollen grain have been studied by SEM and gave a good distinguished characters.
