Abstract

The scientific initiation to be developed in this work plan deals with an important topic in the liked thematic project. Anatomical analysis of roots will serve as the basis of comparisons in different study systems that make up the proposal. The student will be intensely trained in the study of the plant anatomy, producing microscopic images and permitting the interpretation of his results with others data obtained in the thematic Project.
