Reference	P. Rezvani Moghaddam and D. Wilman, Cell wall thickness and cell dimensions in plant parts of eight forage species, Journal of Agricultural Science, Cambridge (1998), 131, 59-67 p.61 table 2
Comments	"The cell walls of the thick-walled tissues were thinnest (0.9µm) in L. perenne leaf blades and T. repens leaflets (in the latter case, excluding the midrib) and thickest (2.0-2.3µm) in the leaf blade midribs, leaf sheaths and stems of Z. mays, and in the stems and petioles of T. repens (Table 2). In C. gayana and C. ciliaris, the walls of the thick-walled cells were thinner in the leaf blades and leaf sheaths than in the stems."
