Comparative studies of the fruit morphology of some species of Philippine rattans

This thesis studies and describes the fruit morphology of twenty species and varieties of Calamus, seven species and varieties of Daemonotrops, two species of Korthalsia, and a variety of Plectocomia. The fruit characters described include fruit shape, color, length, width scale color, shape, size,...
