A study on the caryopses morphology of Indian Eragrostis Wolf using Light Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope is presented. A total of 44 species have been studied. Emphasis has been given to their shape, dimensions, colour, outline in cross section and surface features. The shape varies from ovoid, obovoid, ellipsoid, oblong with truncate or obtuse ends, globose, subglobose, prism like and angled with or without lateral grooves. In cross section the shape varies from circular, cordate, obcordate, ovate and obovate etc. Surface cell reticulations are mostly narrow and rectangular.Keywords

The caryopses morphology of 16 taxa out of 18 taxa of Sporobolus (Poaceae) found in India is examined under Optical and Scanning Electron Microscopes. The macro- and micro-morphological characters such as shape, size, thickness (in cross section), embryo percentage, colour and surface testa ornamentation pattern were critically analysed to evaluate their taxonomic significance in the delimitation and identification of each taxon. Further, a bracketed dichotomous taxonomic key is provided here based on caryopses morphology to facilitate precise identification.Keywords
