Abstract

Cell structure of the leaf blade mesophyll was studied in 4 species of grasses of the genus Festuca (F. gigantea, F. pratensis, F. pseudovina and F. valesiaca) distributed in different natural and climatic conditions of Siberia. The main shapes of cell chlorenchyma were identified. General and distinguishing features of spatial organization of assimilatory tissue of the leaves were revealed and characterized in Festuca species under study.
