摘要
The micro-morphologies and biodiversities of the epidermis of flower petals of angiosperms were reported for the first time. By manual slicing anatomy and microscopic photography technique, the micro-morphologies of the upper and lower epidermis of petals of some common ornamental flowers in Kunming were studied, and the biodiversities were discovered. The results showed these much-varied pigment cells appeared not only a new compensation to anatomy, but<span style="font-family:Verdana;"> a </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">new criteria to taxonomy, so that a brand new research field of </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Cell Taxonomy</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">”</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> was established instead of the current </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Chromosome Taxonomy</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">”</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> widely used in phytosystematics research.
