anatomy mantle longitudinal section cortical (epidermal) cells mean shape-ratio CCq (ECq)

Individual rations for each cell have to be used for calculation of the mean. Only one position after the point should be noted, e.g. 3.5. The dimensions of cortical (epidermal) cells with Hartig net are extremely variable depending upon their distance from the root tip, whether they are formed by the outer row or by inner rows of root cells, and also regarding the tree genus involved in the formation of ectomycorrhizae. Up to now, only very limited information is available about the influence of the fungus on the dimensions of cortical cells. Possibly, this feature can be disregarde.
