Morphological, anatomical, and micromorphological features of pseudonectaries To understand the morphological nature of pseudonectaries, we first performed morphological, anatomical, and micromorphological studies. Under stereomicroscope, petals of N. damascena appear to be long-stalked, hair-bearing, doubly geniculated, and vertically bilabiate structures (Fig. 2a, b). Pseudonectaries, which are located at the distal geniculate bend of the lower petal lip, […] More
