Abstract:The development of chloroplasts in the mesophyll cells of control and urea-applied satsuma mandarin leaves were studied. At 20 days after budding (DAB) active differentiation of chloroplasts in urea-applied trees was evident. However, on a length times width basis, chloroplasts were small in both palisade (1.99 × 0.70 µm ) starch grains. The thylakoid layers per chloroplast were lesser (2.80) in this treatment compared to control (3.72). At 40 DAB, both control and urea-applied trees reached chloroplast maturi… Show more
