Morphological and anatomical study on some of Astragalus L. (sect. Incani DC.) in Boroujerd

One of the sections of Astragalus L. (Fabaceae family) is Incani DC. In the recent research were studied morphological and anatomical characters on 5 species of this section in Boroujerd. The collected species contain: A. curvirostris Boiss.، A. cyclophyllos Beck، A. kabutarlanensis Dehshiri & Maassoumi، A. latifolius Lam.، A. supervisus (Kuntze) Sheld. For anatomical study the cross section of peduncles، rachis، leaflet، pulvinulo and epidermis of leaflet were prepared by hand-operated and stained by double staining with morphological studies showed that characters such as number of leaflet in each leaf، number of flower، standard length، legume length and legume shape were different and resolving in study species and in anatomical study anatomy structure of peduncles، rachis، leaflet، stomatal Index and hair Index can use as a useful tool in the identification and classification species of this section.
