Opis

Plant leaves exhibit a remarkable diversity of size, shape, developmental patterns, composition, and anatomical structures. Many of these morphological variations are assumed to be adaptations that optimize physiological activity and thus assist plants to survive in a range of different habitats. This book aim to investigate the function of some of these leaf modifications, including leaf wax, stomatal plugs and stomatal crypts.
