Anatomical and chemical study on the growing Eriobotrya japonica in Anbar Governorate

Abstract

current research consists of an anatomical find out about of the Eriobotrya japonica from the Rosaceae in Anbar Governorate, which is in the structure of planted trees. The anatomical features of the s, leaf blade and market have been studied and its traits and floor have taxonomic significance in keeping apart and diagnosing this type. Appearance qualities can be linked with anatomical qualities to achieve an built-in classification. The quantity of layers and thickness of every organ, vascular bundles characteristics, wide variety of vessels, the traits of epidermal cells and cross-section structure are all studied contributing to taxonomic significance . The current study also dealt with the phenotypic characteristics of the stem, leaf and stalk, and it became clear through this study that the stems of the type Eriobotrya japonica were cylindrical and hard with many branches and were distinguished by a greenish-brown color. It is not a fixed characteristic of the single type in addition to the shape of the leaf, which is one of the important features in the classification. The stalk is characterized by being short and covered with hairy and green or yellowish green color, and these characteristics are important in the classification of this type. The fatty acids were detected in the hexane extract of Eriobotrya japonica in the gas chromatography device - GC, and the results indicated that this type contains fatty acids, the highest percentage of linoleic acid was 60% and the lowest Linolenic acid by 0.17%.
