This study compares leaf, stem, and root anatomy among six colocasia esculenta cultivars, highlighting significant variations.

Significant anatomical differences were observed among the six cultivars of colocasia esculenta.
The Gambir cultivar exhibited the highest chlorophyll a, b, and total chlorophyll content, indicating enhanced photosynthetic potential.
Jepang merah had the thickest root epidermis and cortex, showcasing anatomical adaptations for nutrient storage.
Ketan cultivar displayed the highest number of stomata and epidermal cells, suggesting enhanced water and nutrient uptake.

Cahyanti et al. (2025) studied this question.
