Comments |
"The cell outline drawing shown is that of a median longitudinal section through the vegetative apex of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. The diameter of this apex is about 54µm and its depth 23µm, so it must be one of the smallest angiosperm [flowering plants] apices to have been described." |
