All the Crystal Idioblasts
in Dieffenbachia
We have mostly been studying crystal idioblasts in the leaves.
This made Adam Woodson (right) wonder what kinds of crystal idioblast cells
might be present in other parts of the plant. He took samples of
tissues from all through the plant, including roots, stems and flowers.
Andrea McConnachie took some more samples later to verify some of Adam's
findings. I am writing this study up for a possible paper.
