The initial determination that C4-dicarboxylic acids were the primary photosynthetic products in a higher plant was made by Kortschak et al. (6). This photosynthetic carbon-fixa-tion pathway is now known to occur in many angiosperm taxa, and specific aspects of the pathway have received considerable attention (5). The leaves of C, plants have a characteristic anatomy consisting of concentric bundle sheath and mesophyll cell layers around the vascular bundles. These two distinct cell layers possess chloroplasts which have either structural or size dimorphism. The bundle sheath cell chloroplasts function as amyloplasts (9, 10). chloroplasts, subsequent refix- tion via Calvin
