Abstract
It was found that ryegrass seed treatment by maleic hydrazide leads to deep and different transformation of basic structural components of leaf anatomy. The results of this transformation depend on leaf development stage and increase with growth of leaf number. The prolongation of treatment is more efficient than increasing of drug concentration and may suppress the development of leaves and their vascular system. The connection between leaf anatomy transformation after maleic hydrazide treatment and genome function was discussed.
