Anatomical Studies of Two Jatropha Species with Importance for Biodiesel Production
Bibliographic record
Abstract
<p><em>Jatropha curcas </em>L. and <em>Jatropha macrocarpa </em>Griseb. (Euphorbiaceae) are perennial species adapted to marginal conditions not suitable for agriculture, and have been recently exploited for oil and biodiesel production<strong>. </strong>The anatomy of different organs in members of this family exhibits a wide range of variations. However, knowledge of anatomical features is still incomplete. The aim of the present work was to analyze the anatomical structure of stem, leaf and root of <em>J. curcas </em>and <em>J. macrocarpa </em>seedling cultivated in a greenhouse. Fixed samples were properly treated using triple stain hematoxylin, safranin and fast green. Primary roots were diarch and triarch in <em>J. curcas</em>, whereas in <em>J. macrocarpa </em>were diarch and the cortex showed parenchyma cells, larger in <em>J. macrocarpa</em> than <em>J. curcas</em>. Stem cortex was thicker in <em>J. macrocarpa</em> than in <em>J. curcas</em>.<em> </em>Both species had parenchyma cells with cystolith, chloroplasts, laticifers and starch granules, these being more abundant in <em>J. macrocarpa</em>. Leaves were characterized by dorsoventral anatomy, with the epiderm showing amphistomatic condition with high stomata density at the lower surface. Both <em>Jatropha </em>species had paracytic stomata. Druses and non-articulated branched laticifers were recorded in the mesophyll. Some of the different anatomical features of <em>J. curcas </em>and <em>J. macrocarpa</em> could explain the different tolerance to abiotic stress.</p>

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
