dc.description.abstractScanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were used to investigate the macro and micromorphology of seed of 17 species (12 genera) of Caryophyllaceae. All material studied was collected from North Anatolia (Square A3-A8 of Flora of Turkey). Three of the species are endemic for Turkey. Some important character states identified were: Seed type: Reniform, ovoid, reniform to orbicular, orbicular, peltate, scaled-winged, winged, cylinderical, ovoid to reniform; seed surface type: Flat-concave, flat, convex, wringed crugosus aculeate, concavo-convex, rounded; tubercle shape: Tall/short conical, obtuse, rounded, flat and aculeate-verrucate, digitate; surface granulation: Medium, fine and coarse or not; suture outline: Digitate/serrate/stellate/sharply-sinuous, fine digitate and sharply serrate; hylar zone: Recessed, prominent, facial and flat.
