ABSTRACT
The family Nyctaginaceae which includes the plant Bougainvillea, exhibits the morphological status and significant uniformity of the floral plan. Nonetheless, there is untamed diversity
in every area of the Bougainvillea plant in almost every aspect of the floral and morphological diversity that lends to comparative study in terms of ‘flora diversity’ which includes
organ, shape, size, colour and symmetrical organisation. Floral and morphological studies have been extended to a much wider range. Studies on further level ‘DUS’ model of Characterization
should provide insights, which alone for various reason cannot be derived by depending upon the single model for morphological Characterization.
Key words : Bougainvillea, Morphological characters, Nyctaginaceae.
