摘要: By inserting microelectrodes into cells of various tissues, it was shown that elongated parenchyma in the phloem and protoxylem, which have larger membrane potential than inexcitable other types, generate action potentials with conduction. The electrical features these are essentially similar to those nerve muscle cells.
