title: Technique for visualization of epidermal glandular structures in plants.
abstract: The distribution of microscopic glandular structures (hairs, capsules, nodules) on a leaf or other plant part can be recorded visually by pressing the plant part against an indicator surface (filter paper, thin-layer chromatography plate) soaked in Tollens' reagent. The glandular sites are revealed instantly on the test surface as dark spots.
