Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Studies on the Plant Cell
This is the first of a series Of papers that will follow one another in the pages of the American Naturalist. They will describe the chief structures in plant cells and the most important events in their life histories, largely from the point of View of the morphologist and student of developmental processes. Research upon the plant cell has entirely outrun the general accounts that may be found in several botanical text books and in certain works of prominent zoologists. We shall attempt to give a general survey of the subject in its present state with references to the most important papers; but this is not to be an exhaustive account of a literature that is already very large and which can probably be treated far more satisfactorily several years from now when it has passed through the criticism that time will give in a field of very active botanical investigation.
