Abstract

The variability shown by Asystasia gangetica (L.) T. Anderson has been thoroughly analyzed by considering gross and micromorphology. The species shows variability in flower color and leaf shape among the accessions collected from different geographical locations. However, the microspore sculpturing was found to be uniform and the seed surface architecture showed variation in one of the accessions as well as A. gangetica var. krishnae.
