Effects of C4 transactivation on cell number. Confocal (A, B) or Nomarski (C, D) images show that C4 increased the number of vascular cells in the embryonic cotyledon midvein of Q0990>>C4.2 (B) compared with wild type (A), as seen in transverse (top) and longitudinal (bottom) sections of the same cotyledons. Leaves of 2-week-old J0571>>C4.1 plants had more numerous, smaller palisade cells with smaller or no intercellular spaces (D) compared with wild type (C). Arrows delimit vascular bundles (A, B) or a typical mesophyll cell (C, D). Q, Q0990; J, J0571. Bars, 10 µm.
