    Notes: Abstract Oleosomes, up to 14μm in diameter, were found in mesophyll and bundle sheath cells of the flag and lower leaves of wheat cv Professeur Marchal. They develop in flag leaves at least 10 d before anthesis, possibly from fatty acids secreted by the plastids, and persist in mature and senescing leaf tissue. Oleosomes are bordered with an osmiophilic layer rather than a unit membrane. The major lipids of oleosomes, isolated 20 d after anthesis, are triacylglycerols (50%) and sterol or wax exter (34%). The dominant fatty acids of both lipid classes are plamitic (16:0) and stearic (18:0) acids which accounts for the low osmiophilia of the oleosomes. The function of the oleosomes is unknown but they may act as short-term energy reserves. Oleosomes persist in leaves infected with brown rust, even in cells penetrated by haustoria. Yellowish-brown oleosomes found in senescing and rust-infected leaves may be formed by the release and coalescence of pigmented plastoglobuli.

    Notes: Summary Potato leaf morphology changes during plant development with the phase shift from vegetative growth to flowering. Image analysis can detect differences in leaf morphology and has been used here to distinguish differences in leaf morphology between potato crops derived from seed tubers and minitubers and between crops derived from different micropropagation protocols. Further, leaf shape parameters can be used to determine the relative maturity of crops. This finding is of economic importance since differences in plant development, for example delayed flowering, are associated with yield parameters. It is hypothesised that image analysis of established microplants can be used as an early evaluation of micropropagation protocols for potato.
