Abstract

Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. has strong adaptability to drought and other stresses. In order to clarify the mechanism of its adaptation to adversity ecolo-gy, this study started with morphology and microstructure, and studied the bo-tanical morphological characteristics, anatomical structure and histochemistry in two different habitats by setting two different habitat conditions of flooding and non-flooding.
