Thanks a lot Gurcharan ji, Balkar ji, Dinesh ji, Ritesh and Pankaj for the wishes and appreciative comments.
Ritesh, you probably know more about 'La lot', the Vietnamese betel leaf (Piper sarmentosum). Its very close to our Indian betel vine (P. betle) and has similar usage. Morphologically they are similar and difficult to distinguish. So we tried anatomy for the purpose. Pankaj, yes I look forward to doing pollen microscopy in the future... I am presently working on an orchid species :) and analyzing the quality of its medicinal (commercial) products.
