Resumo: | Wunderlichia (Asteraceae) species are endemic to central and eastern Brazil, usually found on rocky outcrops, and subjected to high sun irradiation and temperatures. Such conditions suggest multiple xeromorphic adaptations on the internal structure of Wunderlichia azulensis. This study aimed to characterize the morphoanatomy of vegetative parts of W. azulensis. Roots, stems, and leaves were collected from the Itaoca massif, a rocky outcrop in Campos dos Goytacazes, Brazil. The plant material was fixed, dehydrated, and embedded in plastic resin to make cross sections. Histochemical tests were conducted to identify the compound classes in W. azulensis leaf tissues and trichomes. The trichome morphology was analyzed using a scanning electron microscope. The roots exhibited a distinctive morphoanatomical structure and can be characterized as a xylopodium. The leaves had a set of anatomical adaptation traits, including epidermal cells with straight or slightly sinuous anticlinal walls, highly dense trichomes, and a subepidermal layer. Histochemical tests revealed phenolic compounds and essential oils in the mesophyll. This study contributed to the knowledge of anatomical adaptations of a rupicolous plant and its xeromorphic environment and suggests further studies are needed to better understand the root and stem structures of W. azulensis. |

Tais condições sugerem ocorrência de múltiplas adaptações xeromórficas em Wunderlichia azulensis. Este estudo visou caracterizar a morfoanatomia dos órgãos vegetativos de W. azulensis. Raízes, caules e folhas foram coletados de um afloramento rochoso no Maciço do Itaoca, Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ, Brasil. O material vegetal foi fixado, desidratado e emblocado em resina plástica para seções transversais. Testes histoquímicos foram realizados para identificação das classes químicas nas folhas e tricomas de W. azulensis. A morfologia dos tricomas foi avaliada em microscópio eletrônico de varredura. As raízes apresentaram uma estrutura morfoanatômica distinta que pode ser caracterizada como xilopódio. As folhas apresentaram um conjunto de atributos anatômicos adaptativos, como células epidérmicas com paredes anticlinais retas ou levemente sinuosas, alta densidade de tricomas e camada subepidérmica. Os testes histoquímicos revelaram substâncias fenólicas e óleos essenciais no mesofilo. Este estudo contribuiu para o conhecimento sobre as adaptações anatômicas das plantas rupícolas e de ambientes xeromórficos, e sugere futuros estudos para elucidação da estrutura das raízes e caules de W. azulensis.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2022-11-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/9046010.5007/2175-7925.2022.e90460Biotemas; v. 35 n. 4 (2022): Revista Biotemas; 1-142175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/90460/52124Copyright (c) 2022 Fernanda Gomes Trindade, Rodrigo Barbosa Braga Feitoza, Maura Da Cunhahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTrindade, Fernanda GomesFeitoza, Rodrigo Barbosa BragaCunha, Maura da2022-11-28T13:42:32Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/90460Revistahttp://www.biotemas.ufsc.br/index.htmPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/oai||carlospinto@ccb.ufsc.br2175-79250103-1643opendoar:2022-11-28T13:42:32Biotemas (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
