    Abstract We studied the growth habit and root anatomy on two species of the Macroptilium genera, Fabaceae. These species, potential forages, are native to the Northwest Provinces in Argentina. The aims of this paper were to determine the survival capacity of the study species relating its growth habit and persistence with morphological and anatomical features. Root samples were collected and cut using either a microtome or by hand, at varying distances from the root tip. Cuts were examined under a light microscope, and with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) using staining techniques. Macroptilium bracteatum and M. erythroloma are perennial herbs. More >
