Abstract
A technique is described in which the scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been used to study the internal cellular organization of the plant organs and the interaction of the plant with the environment. Transverse surfaces were revealed by fracturing quick frozen specimens and freeze-drying the fragments. The greater depth of focus of the SEM compared with the optical microscope enabled the production of clear, realistic micrographs with a three-dimensional appearance
