- Abstract
This study was conducted to establish a microscopic identification method of Polygonum. capitatum Buch. Ham. ex D. Don. [Methods] The cross sections were identified by microscopic identification. [Results] The stem cross section of P. capitatum is round-like, and shows pericyclic fibers forming a ring, strongly lignified, many vascular bundles, and a hollow pith part. There are many starch granules in the powder, and single granules are more common; and fibers are mostly bundled or scattered, lignified or non-lignified, and calcium oxalate cluster crystals are common. There are many pollen grains, obtuse triangular or round-like, and some of them have three germination apertures. They have fine thorn-like protrusions on the outer wall, the surface of which has reticulate carvings. [Conclusions] The results of microscopic identification are reliable and can be used as the basis for identification of P. capitatum.
