MICROMETRIC ANALYSIS OF STAMEN HAIR CELLS OF TRADESCANTIA
Morphometric characteristics of hair cells of stamens of Tradescantia (surface area and cell volume, length and area of the perimeter of cells, etc.) were studied. For each hair, the form of the «morphometric passport» was developed and a quantitative assessment of the variability of metric parameters of living cells in the terminal, middle and basal zones of the hairs. The obtained data are important for various studies of morphology and systems of regulation of plant cell activity, for example the hair cells of the stamens of the Tradescantia filaments, and when using hairs as a test system for determination of mutagens.
