“…Seasonal studies made plants from various families. Anatomical studies on angiosperms (Foster, 1935;Whaley, 1939;by Sinnott and Bailey (1914) led to the conclusion Reeve, 1948) describe some variation in the apex. that there was an intimate connection between This study of Liriodendron revealed no seasonal stipules and nodal anatomy, and resulted in the changes in the configuration of the shoot apex and definition that "stipules are integral portions of hence is not in agreement with the above-mentioned the base of the leaf."…”

“…Plumular meristem size in heterotic maize was found to be no greater than that of the larger parent while, in one pedigree, nuclear size in the plumular meristems of the hybrid was significantly greater than in the larger parent (Bindloss, 1938). Whaley (1939b) found no relationship between volume of the meristem and degree of hybrid vigor in the embryo or during development of tomatoes. He further observed that cell and nuclear size decreased during development, but that this decrease took place more rapidly in the inbred parents.…”

“…He further observed that cell and nuclear size decreased during development, but that this decrease took place more rapidly in the inbred parents. In an earlier paper, Whaley (1939a) reported that heterosis produced its effect on total plant size of tomatoes. Size of fruits was not increased by heterosis, but they were produced in greater number.…”

“…A similar reduction in size of cells was reported by Kliem (1936) in Avena sativa and by Sharman (1945) in Agropyron. Whaley (1939) also reported a decrease in size of cells of the meristem of Lycopersicum from younger to older stages. Abbe et at.…”
