Leaf Trichome Morphology of Durio Kutejensis Landraces from Kalimantan

Makara Journal of Science, 2015
The leaf trichome morphology of 19 Durio kutejensis (lai) landraces was studied. The observation of cross- and paradermal sections of D. kutejensis leaves showed that all landraces have glabrous leaves on the adaxial surface, while their abaxial surfaces
