Mesophytes are the plants which grow in such soil which contain sufficient amount of water. The water is not in huge amount and soil is also not dry. These are the land plants with temperate regions. The characters of mesophytes are as follows:
- Their roots are well developed.
- Their body is covered by a layer known as Cuticle. It prevents transpiration.
- They contain stomata for evaporation of extra amount of water e.g. Mango rose etc.
- Some mesophytes of rainy regions contain hydathodes (opening without guard cells). Through these hydathodes water is excreted out in the form of drops, this process is called guttation.
