Quantitative Anatomical Characteristics of Virgin Cork in Quercus variabilis Grown in Korea
The quantitative anatomical characteristics of Quercus variabilis virgin cork grown in Korea were observed by scanning electron microscopy and compared with Quercus suber reproduction cork from Portugal to obtain basic data for further utilization of domestic cork resources in Korean cork industries. Q. variabilis virgin cork showed a smaller growth ring width and higher latecork percentage than Q. suber reproduction cork. Q. variabilis showed a smaller proportion of cork cells and a higher proportion of lenticular channels than Q. suber, whereas sclereid and dark-brown zones were found only in Q. variabilis. The frequency of pentagonal cork cells in the transverse and radial sections was higher in the cork of Q. suber than in Q. variabilis. In the tangential section, Q. variabilis displayed a lower frequency of heptagonal cells and a higher frequency of pentagonal cells than Q. suber.Q. variabilis cork had a smaller cell width, lumen diameter, cell wall thickness, prism base edge and area, total cell volume, and solid volume of the cell wall than Q. suber cork. The fractional solid volume and number of cells per cm3 were higher in Q. variabilis than Q. suber.
