Abstract
The Eupatorieae [Eupatorium fuertesii] and Vernonieae [Vernonia fuertesii] differ in pubescence, leaf insertion, leaf shape and venation, corolla lobe form, anther bases, anther pubescence, endothecial cells, pollen grains, style branches, achene walls and pappus. The Eupatorieae are related to the Heliantheae in the subfamily Asteroideae, and the Vernonieae are placed close to the Liabeae and Mutisieae in the subfamily Cichorioideae.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
