I identified the cell types indicated below using the listed MU Plant Cell Expert System character states.  NB.: Once you have identified a cell type in the MUPCES, click on Item List, then View Marks to review the list of features or character states you used in your identification.  Record these features in the second column in the table below.

I have also included one or more images of my best examples of these cell types with a complete description of  the specimen name,  type of section or maceration, and specific stains used.
