What Is the Basic Botany Slide Set Used For?
The set is built for comparing groups rather than studying one plant in depth. A class can place the Marchantia, Mnium and Dryopteris slides side by side to see antheridia and archegonia in a liverwort, a moss and a fern, then contrast them with the Ranunculus flower bud and pollen grains adapted for wind and insect distribution. The algae and fungi slides show conjugation in Spirogyra and Mucor, budding yeast and Penicillium conidia.
The flowering-plant slides add everyday anatomy practice with root, stem and leaf sections, while the Cucurbita LS is chosen for sieve tubes and the Allium root apex for stages of mitosis. Teachers often keep the set as a reference collection in the botany lab and bring out the relevant slides as each plant group is taught.
