|
architecture |
pith |
Interrupted by cavities that are more or less regularly spaced along the axis and that result from disintegration of tissue prior to axis maturity. |
veined |
|
architecture |
|
Having one or more orders of evident vasculature. |
ribbed 1 |
= costate |

|
Having one or more ribs (costae). |

= epistomatous |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Having stomata on only the adaxial surface. |
…palmate |
= …digitate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Compound with the number of orders of leaflets indicated by the prefix, each order palmate; as in bipalmate. |
inflorescence 1 |
|
architecture |
|
Mode or progressive pattern of bearing flowers; most appropriately described using adjectival terms. |
sulcate |
= colpate, fossulate, furrowed, grooved, valleculate |
architecture |
|

|
architecture |
flower, androecium |

single-leafleted |
= one-leafleted, unifoliolate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Structurally compound but with only one leaflet, whose nature (as a leaflet, not a leaf) is revealed by an evident articulation with the petiole, this condition presumably derived by evolutionary reduction from a multifoliolate precursor. |
