Abstract
The petiole anatomy of three sections (sects. Calospira, Chamaedryon, and Spiraria) in the genus Spiraea (Rosaceae), which are distributed/cultivated in Korea, was studied and described in details. The vascular bundle system of the distal, medial, and proximal parts of the petiole were studied using LM with the aim of documenting any differences in vascular anatomy. Significant variation of anatomical characters was found in petiole shape (dichotomy, lens or subcircular in outline), presence of two distinct lateral wings, the thickness of epidermis, number of vascular bundles, length of ventral axis, length of dorsiventral axis, width of median vascular bundle, and length of median vascular bundle. All features were compared and we concluded that petiole anatomical characters can be useful for providing diagnostic features to distinguish the studied taxa. A key for identifying the Spiraea taxa in Korea based on their petiole anatomical characters is also provided.
