DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcx036
Abstract: Background and Aims Ultrathin sections of rice leaf blades observed two-dimensionally using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) show that the chlorenchyma is composed of lobed mesophyll cells, with intricate cell boundaries, and lined with chloroplasts.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/plb.13512
Abstract: C4 plants supply concentrated CO2 to bundle sheath (BS) cells, improving the photosynthetic efficiency by suppressing photorespiration. Mesophyll chloroplasts in C4 plants redistribute toward the side of the BS cells (aggregative movement) in response to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ppl.13865
Abstract: Conifer (Pinaceae) needles are the most frost-hardy leaves. During needle freezing, the exceptional leaf anatomy, where an endodermis separates the mesophyll from the vascular tissue, could have consequences for ice management and photosynthesis. The eco-physiological… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0275024
Abstract: Plants respond to environmental stressors, such as an oligotrophic environments, by altering the morphological and physiological functions of their leaves. Sex affects these functions because of the asymmetric cost of reproduction in dioecious plants. We… read more here.
