Leaf Anatomy in Relation to C3 and C4 Pathways of CO2 Fixation

Introduction Leaf anatomy may influence net leaf photosynthesis to a large degree and thus cause great differences in light-use efficiency. Like the root and stem, the leaf consists of vascular, parenchymatous and dermal tissue, the latter being a persistent epidermis. The epidermis protects the leaf against uncontrolled high water loss and against damage caused by […]

Safety Guidelines in the Laboratory

Introduction A laboratory poses potential risks due to exposure to corrosive and toxic materials, flammable solvents, high pressure gases, explosive chemicals and dangerous microbes. A little care and adherence to prescribed safety guidelines will help avoid laboratory mishaps. Safety goggles, protective wears, gloves, shoes, helmet, and other Personal Protective Equipments (PPEs) should be used when necessary
