Figure Abbrevations: Ad, adaxial; Ab, abaxial; E, epidermis; P, palisade mesophyll; S, spongy mesophyll. Fig. 1. Illustrated view of an oblique-paradermal and transverse leaf section, and their relationship for a dorsiventral leaf type. The oblique-paradermal section has been divided into a series of images and the variables used to determine A_mes/A, A_mes/V, and V_mes/V are indicated. See text for explanation of variables used in the computation of mesophyll parameters.

Fig. 2. (A) Internal profile of A_mes/A and (B) chlorophyll concentrations from the adaxial to abaxial epidermis for juvenile, transitional and adult leaves of Eucalyptus globulus ssp. globulus. Values are means ± SE for 3–7 leaves of each leaf type.

Fig. 3. (A) Internal profile of chlorophyll a:b and (B) the ratio of mesophyll cell volume per unit mesophyll volume (V_mes/V) from the adaxial to abaxial surface of juvenile, transitional, and adult leaves of Eucalyptus globulus ssp. globulus. Values are means ± SE for 3–5 leaves of each leaf type.
