Intercellular communication in the maize root endodermis
- 1 Institute of Botany, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava
The endodermal cells of the maize roots are linked to each other via plasmodesmata mainly localized at the proximity of the Casparian band on the anticlinal walls. In this part of the walls was noticed the absence of the suberin lamella in the thickening endodermal cells.
