Summary Experiments have been presented which indicate that the layers of potato starch granules are built up by a gradual process of apposition. This process is dependent upon the supply of carbohydrates to the amyloplasts. The stripping film technique has made it possible for the first time to make starch granule growth more directly visible. |
