The morpho-anatomical structure of the leaves of artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) grown in the Republic of Moldova
Abstract
Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) was introduced in the collection of medicinal plants of the Centre for the cultivation of medicinal plants of The State Medical and Pharmaceutical University «Nicolae Testemiţanu» in 2002 (Bodrug 2005) . We carried out morphological and anatomical study of leaves of the artichoke with a view to determining the adaptive anatomical structures of the leaf to the climatic conditions of the Republic of Moldova, as well as to elucidate specific anatomical structures to identify the medicinal drug and medicinal plant.
