PoaceaeCharacteristic morphological features…that synthesizes a four-carbon (C-4) compound and that which synthesizes a three-carbon (C-3) compound. The chief distinction between these two pathways is the presence of specialized, thick-walled photosynthetic cells located in sheaths surrounding vascular bundles in C-4 plants. These cells participate in the mechanism for assimilation of carbon dioxide…
