| Abstract | The wood anatomy of family Lauraceae was examined to evaluate the detailed anatomical characteristics among selected species of Cinnamomum, Litsea and Phoebe collected from the forests of Upper Assam, NE India. The present study showed that wood structure was homogeneous among genera. The common anatomical characteristics among genera seen were: diffuse porous wood, solitary vessels, intervessel pits alternate, scanty paratracheal parenchyma, presence of septate fibres, oil/mucilage cells, homocellular rays and heterocellular rays. Cinnamomum and Litsea species showed variation in anatomical characteristics. Among Cinnamomum species, growth rings were distinct in C. ceicidodaphne and C. zeylanicum, indistinct in C. tamala and C. bejolghota. Confluent parenchyma was present in C. bejolghota and C. zeylanicum. Aggregate rays were present only in C. ceicidodaphne whereas sheath cells were observed in C. bejolghota. Among Litsea species, indistinct growth ring boundaries, spiral thickenings in vessel elements, crystals in fibres, aggregate rays and sheath cells were distinct features of L. monopetala, scalariform perforation plates were present in both L. cubeba and L. salicifolia. However, L. cubeba could be differentiated from L. salicifolia in having perforated ray cells with scalariform perforation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
