Abstract

This work was realized with the first central trifoliate leaves of the kidney bean plants, grown in two diferent light conditions: under darkness and under sun light.

The amount of 20 plants, per treatment, grown in containers with the some kind of soil, wich land nutrient solution and water quantity were the some in both treatments.

The measures were realized 10 days after the first trifoliate leaves had appeared.

Through the valuations of the stomatic density, stomatic average percentualy per each epiderm, mesofilo thickness and vascular bundle was verified the quantitative effect of the darkness and sun light on this four items.

In this work it was also verified the leaves area in each treatment.

The leaves grown under the sun light had shown more variatin between the results obtained in each item. (parâmetro)

Also the averages obtained in each studied aspect were higher under the sun conditions.

The statistic analisis of the averages obtained per treatment revealed that there is meaningful diference between the leaves grown under the darkness and under the sun light.
