Compartmentation of fluorescent tracers injected into the epidermal cells of Egeria densa leaves
We have compared the movement of a series of fluorescent tracers of increasing molecular weight injected into the cytoplasm in the epidermal cells of leaves of Egeria densa Planch. In general, the tracers showed ...

Symplast domains in extrastelar tissues of Egeria densa Planch.
A set of hydrophilic fluorescent dyes of known molecular weight has been used to determine the molecular exclusion limit and the extent of apical, epidermal and cortical symplasts in the root, stem and leaf of Eg...

Characterization of theEgeria densa leaf symplast: Response to plasmolysis, deplasmolysis and to aromatic amino acids
The fluorescent dyes 6-carboxyfluorescein and fluorescein glutamylglutamic acid, which move freely in theEgeria densa leaf symplast, fail to move from cells subjected to plasmolysis, demonstrating that plasmolysi...

Characterisation of the Egeria densa Planch. leaf symplast
The hydrophyllic dyes fluorescein glutamic acid, fluorescein glutamylglutamic acid (F(Glu)2), fluorescein hexaglycine, fluorescein leucyldiglutamyl-leucine and 6-carboxyfluorescein are unable to pass the plasmale...
