ABSTRAK

Penelitian tentang perkembangan bunga Pinanga coronata (BL. Ex Mart.) Bl. yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui anatomi perkembangan ginoesieum telah dilakukan. Pengamatan anatomi perkembangan ginoesieum dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode paraffin. Bahan disayat setebal 6–10 m dan diwarnai dengan Hemalum Mayer. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Bakal biji bertipe hemianatrop, bitegmik dan krasinuselat. Megasporogenesis menghasilkan megaspora bentuk linier dan megagametogenesis menghasilkan kantung embrio dengan tipe Polygonium.

ABSTRACT

An investigation of the flower development of Pinanga coronata was carried out to obtain information about anatomical development of gynoecium. Anatomical observation were done by paraffin methods. Serial section of then material were made at 6-10 m and stained with Mayer’s Hemalum. The result showed that the ovule is hemianatropus, bitegmic and crassinucellate. Megasporogenesis formatted a linier tetrad of megaspores and megagametogenesis formed a Polygonum type embryo sac.
