Morphology of and Silicon Distribution within the Non-Glandular Trichomes of Soybean
Abstract Three near isolines of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], glabrous, normal, and dense, were examined by light, scanning electron, and transmission electron microscopy, as well as by energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. This was done in order to determine the morphology and possible functions, in addition to conveying insect ...
