(synonym, P. lolot C.DC.), which is a southeast Asian medicinal plant valued for its medicinal and culinary uses. The study also compares the anatomy of the leaf, petiole, stem and root of P. sarmentosum with those of the well-characterized P. betle L. The leaves of both the species are morphologically comparable and have similar culinary uses. The present study showed that the leaves of both the species possess more or less comparable anatomical features with a few differences;whereas, the microscopic features of the petiole, stem, and root of the two species are distinctive.展开更多
Three new species of Piperaceae, Piper dominantinervium A. Chaveerach & P. Mokkamul, P. pilobracteatum A. Chaveerach & R. Sudmoon from southern Thailand, and P. phuwuaense A. Chaveerach & T. Tanee from nor...Three new species of Piperaceae, Piper dominantinervium A. Chaveerach & P. Mokkamul, P. pilobracteatum A. Chaveerach & R. Sudmoon from southern Thailand, and P. phuwuaense A. Chaveerach & T. Tanee from northeastern Thailand, are described and illustrated. P. phuwuaense is considered rare and endemic to Phu Wua Wildlife Sanctuary. Morphological differences between the new species and related taxa are discussed.展开更多
