- Abstract
The lengths of meristematic ( l ) and fully-elongated cells ( l ) were measured in the roots of 118 monocot and dicot species of herbaceous plants from 20 angiosperm families. The results were analyzed using the data on haploid DNA content ( C ) for the same species from the website (http://data.kew.org/cvalues). The distribution range of l , l , and C was wider in monocot plants compared to dicots. Values of l and l in monocot and l in dicot species correlated positively with C . Dependence of l and l on C was similar in diploid and polyploid species, both monocots and dicots. The average length of root cells differed less than the root length.
