Pharmacognostical analysis of plant material of Dasiphora parvifolia (Rosaceae)

Abstract

The article presents the results of studying the morphological and anatomical structure of the aboveground  organs of small-leafed Kuril tea (Dasiphora parvifolia) collected in the Karaganda region (Central Kazakh[1]stan). The characteristics of the aboveground organs were analyzed, and descriptions of key morphological  and anatomical features were provided, such as leaf shape, structure of the upper and lower sides of the leaf,  stem structure, inflorescence, as well as its parts — calyx, petals, and sepals. Microscopic data were given for  surface preparations and sections. Based on the descriptions, diagnostic features of the raw material were de[1]termined at the macro- and microscopic levels.
