Starch granule distribution in culms of F. yunnanensis in different months under SEM. a Parenchyma cells in the top portion of 1-year-old culms showing few starch granules in January. Bar = 50 μm. b A few starch granules (arrow) in the top portion of 2-year-old culms in January. Bar = 30 μm. c More starch granules in the top portion of 3-year-old culms in January. Bar = 20 μm. d Only a few starch granules (arrow) observed in the top portion of 3-year-old culms in May. Bar = 20 μm. e Starch granules observed in some parenchyma cells of the top portion of 3-year-old culms in August. Bar = 20 μm. f A few starch granules (arrow) observed in the top portion of 1-year-old culms in August. Bar = 20 μm. g Few starch granules observed in culms of all ages in November (here is the top portion of 3-year-old culms). Bar = 50 μm
