Abstract

The present study aimed to characterize the anatomy and histochemistry of the stem and leaves of Jasminum azoricum L. Thus, semi-permanent slides were prepared containing transverse sections of the stem and leaf, in addition to paradermal sections of the leaf blade, analyzed by optical microscopy. Histochemical tests were also carried out in order to verify the site of accumulation of chemical constituents in cross-sections of the leaf blade. The anatomical characterizations allowed the identification of important characteristics to distinguish the species and the histochemistry revealed the sites of synthesis and/or storage of the metabolites. The results found help to identify the species studied and point out possible metabolites that have considerable medicinal properties.
