An excitable membrane in the stalked glands ofDrosera capensisL.

摘要

Shortly after feeding the surface of the gland ofDrosera capensisL. with whole milk or other protein sources the plasmalemma adjacent to the tracheid becomes highly modified.

Finally the bleb is pinched off at the base and disappears into the trachei
