Abstract

After a treatment of maize and mustard seedlings with amitrole (10 -4 to 10-2 M, 1 and 15 hours) in differentiating cells of root tips changes in the fine structure of proplastids have been observed. Such proplastids are much enlarged, apparently swollen and with a very empty stroma. Changes in other organelles have never been observed. The proplastids of the meristematic cells have also never shown any structural changes.
