[Studies on Cnidium fruits by stereological method and computer image analysis].
The fruits, pollen grains, vascular bundles, stomata and endosperm cells of 4 Cnidium species were studied and determined by stereological method and computer image analysis technique. Statistical data were presented. In the volume of fruit and the area of vascular bundle, Cnidium dahuricum is the biggest, then C. salinum, C. japonicum and C. monnieri successively. In the volume of pollen grain,C. salinum is the biggest, followed by C. dahuricum, C. japonicum and C. monnieri in succession. In the volume of endosperm cell, C. dahuricum is also the biggest, and then C. japonicum, C. salinum and C. monnieri in order.
