Аннотация:[Anatomy of the foliage leaves in some species of Amaranthus L. 1. Ontogeny]
The leaf ontogeny in 6 species of two sections of the genus Amaranthus was studied. The process of the leaf ontogenesis in the species of this genus has been concluded to be essentially similar to that in other Dicotyledons. The revealed similarity between the organization of the foliar axis apex and the shoot apex is considered to be one of the parallelism characters in the organization of both the leaf and the whole shoot. The development of the hairs of different kinds is described.
