Fig. 3From: Shoot organization in the seagrass zostera noltii: implications for space occupation and plant architectureZ. noltii. Transverse sections through an apical and first lateral shoots. Sections were done at different depths within the shoot, from node (a) upper to leaves (f). Sh1 is the sheath of the oldest leaf (L-1) in the apical shoots; Sh2 is the sheath of L-2 in the apical meristem; Sh5 is the sheath of the first leaf (LF) of the future lateral shoot; ShL1 is the sheath of the old leaf 1 in the first lateral shoot; LS is the first lateral shoot; L n is the leaf number from apical shoot; Sp is the shoot primordium; R is the rootsBack to article page
