The paraffin embedding technique in the study of plant histology

Abstract

Morphological and anatomical studies provide essential background knowledge of biological Systems during growth and development stages. Unique structural changes may also be identified to provide additional insight of the experimental System during the course of investigation. New and improved methods to study plant morphology and anatomy continue to appear in the literature. However, many classical histological methods such as studies using the paraffin embedding (PP.) method are still useful and contribute to our understanding of cellular details of the plant body.
