Abstract

Fruits and seeds observations in three species of Odontites Ludwig (Scrophulariaceae). A morphological and anatomical study of fruits and seeds of three species of Odontites Ludwig (O. tenuifolia, O. longiflora and O. foliosa) has been made. The results show that these taxa can be differentiated on the basis of fruits and seeds features. However, the characters used do not support separation these species in different genera (Odontitella and Macrosyringion).
