A complete leaf detached from the plant:—The upper shaded portion (f) represents the green part (the foliage leaf proper) : the middle narrow unshaded portion (s) the colourlets stalk part, which in the intact plant is covered by the protective sheath : the basal portion (b) one of the new (immature) bulb-scales, ^\hich gradually become filled with starch and inulin, elaborated from the sugar formed in the chlorophyll cells. The line, U—L, arbitrarily separates the foliar part into an upper and lower portion. Leaves were so divided for the analyses in this section of the paper. Otherwise, as a rule, the whole of the green part of the leaf was taken for analytical Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Biochemical Society (Great Britain); University of Liverpool.
