In botany, a leaf is an above-ground plant organ specialized for photosynthesis. For this purpose, a leaf is typically flat (laminar) and thin. There is continued debate about whether the flatness o...

Cyanide is an apoptosis inducer in stoma guard cells from pea leaf epidermis. ... DG and CCCP caused cell destruction after longer incubation of the isolated epidermis - after 2 days and to a greater degree after 4 days. The effect of DG and CCCP was reduced by illumination.

A leaf is a plant organ which is an outgrowth of the stem, and has three main parts: the blade, a flattened terminal portion; the petiole, a basal stalk which connects the blade to the stem; and the stipules, small appendages at the base of the petiole.

The leaf epidermis has small pores, called stomata, which open up for photosynthetic gas exchange and transpiration. Stomata are scattered throughout the epidermis, but are typically more numerous on the lower leaf surface.

Let’s look at the structure of a leaf. The epidermis is the “skin” or outer protective layer of cells on a leaf. The epidermis is covered with a waxy coating. It’s called the cutin or the cuticle. The cuticle may also contain “hairs” as part of the cuticle.

Paradermal Sections: If the epidermis is not easily peeled, thin sections cut parallel with the leaf surface (Paradermal sections) may be used. The latter will be demonstrated but are hard to do.
