Abstract: | Summary Three models for mesophyll cell arrangement in leaves of Lolium perenne L. are described. It is shown that mesophyll cells may be represented as spheres packed in a tetragonal lattice. The need to quantify mesophyll cell arrangement is discussed in relation to leaf photosynthesis.The variation on measurements of some anatomical features of leaves is examined and discussed. |
