Abstract
- The purpose of this study is to reveal the structural aspects of the leaf as occurring in the genus Magnolia. The leaves are bifacial and hypostomatic. Secretory oil cells are a constant presence. We have revealed significant dissimilarities in stomatal density and size as occurring in three ornamental species: Magnolia kobus, Magnolia x soulangeana "Soulange-Bodin" (M. denudata x M. liliiflora) and Magnolia x "Susan" (M. kobus var. stellata "Rosea" x M. liliiflora "Nigra"). The highest stomatal density was recorded in the diploid species Magnolia kobus. The stomata are significantly elongated in Magnolia x soulangeana "Soul.-Bod." and wide in Magnolia kobus.
