Morpho-Anatomical Analysis of the Species Origanum Vulgare l. (Lamiaceae Lindl.)

The article provides information on both constant and various structural indicators determined as a result of microscopic study of the taxon O.vulgare L.The scientific nature of the species and its distribution area are indicated.The medicinal, nutritional and ornamental properties of the plant are also thoroughly studied and analyzed.Despite the fact that plant classification is based mainly on morphological data, the anatomical method of studying vegetative organs of plants is of great importance in taxonomy and phylogeny.According to the anatomical analysis of O.vulgare L., the characteristics of its stem, petiole and leaf were determined.The plant's stem is quadrangular and has numerous collateral-type tufts.The leaves are amphistomatic, the stomata types are mesomorphic, the number of stomata on the lower surface of the leaf is greater than on the upper one.The epidermis of the leaf contains thyroid glandular hairs.The characteristic indicators revealed by microscopic studies were designated as diagnostic signs.
