Summary
Brudermann A., Martínez-Azorín M., Koller C., Luidold A. K., Stabentheiner E. & Wetschnig W. 2019. SEM observations on the seed surface of Hyacinthaceae. – Phyton (Horn, Austria) 59 (1–2): 69–90, with 5 figures and 5 tables.
Data on seed morphology of 132 species from 40 genera of all subfamilies (Ornithogaloideae, Hyacinthoideae, Urgineoideae, Oziroëoideae) of Hyacinthaceae are presented. So far, this is the most extensive study on the seed surface of Hyacinthaceae using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and we also give insights into the systematic implications of seed surface micromorphology.
