Abstract: | In order to clarify the occurrence of the C4 syndrome in Eleocharis,a group of bladeless sedges inhabiting wet and aquatic environments,the anatomical characteristics and carbon isotope ratios ofculms were investigated in 118 species. Among these, only sixspecies of the series Tenuissimae showed the Kranz type of anatomyand |
