Description:

Transverse sections of the stems of Vaccinium myrtillus revealed that the pith is oval, round or drop shaped. In contrast, in V. vitis- idaea it is usually radially angular (triangular, tetragonal etc.). This difference can be used to distinguish the vegetative remains of these plants in peat sediments.
