Associations between the acclimation of phloem-cell wall ingrowths in minor veins and maximal photosynthesis rate

Associations between the acclimation of phloem-cell wall ingrowths in minor veins and maximal photosynthesis rate

The companion cells (CCs) and/or phloem parenchyma cells (PCs) in foliar minor veins of some species exhibit invaginations that are amplified when plants develop in high light (HL) compared to low light (LL). Leaves of plants that develop under HL also exhibit greater maximal rates of photosynthesi...
