| Description |
The seasonal development of plastids in beach leaves is demonstrated in series of microscopic shots:- Precursors of chloroplasts (proplastids) in the shoot
- Maturing chloroplasts during leafing
- Mature chloroplasts in summer leaves
- Degeneration of chloroplasts to chromoplasts in the autumnal leaf
A video shows a beach bud unfolding in time lapse.
