“…It remains unknown whether the gas exchange and water physiology of leaves differ between the two C 3 subgroups. Interestingly, the festucoid C 3 grasses tend to have larger stomata in the leaf blade than the bambusoid and panicoid C 3 grasses, but a lower density of stomata (Ashida and Sugino, 1984;Kawamitsu et al, 1996). For instance, O. sativa leaves show the highest density of stomata among grass species, but the stomatal size is very small (Kawamitsu et al, 1996).…”

It seems that C(4) grasses have structurally a superior photosynthate translocation and water distribution system by developing denser networks of small longitudinal and transverse veins, while keeping a constant density of large longitudinal veins. The bambusoid and panicoid C(3) grasses have a vascular system that is more similar to that in C(4) grasses than to that in the festucoid C(3) grasses.

“…Stomatal density varies with the crop species (Shearman and Beard, 1972). Rice varieties reportedly have a high stomatal density (Ashida and Sugino, 1984; Kawamitsu et al, 1996) although the density varies with the rice variety (Maruyama and Kabaki, 1985;Jodo, 1986). The present study confirmed that the stomatal density was significantly higher in the japonica varieties than in the indica varieties.…”

“…Most rice varieties have auxiliary cells at the outer edge of the guard cells. Because these cells are thought to affect the opening and closing of the stomata (Maeda and Miyake, 1973;Ashida and Sugino, 1984) , we measured the stomatal length including the auxiliary cells (Fig. I).…”
