Leaf anatomy, rates of photosynthesis, leaf N, chlorophyll, RuBP carboxylase and nitrate reductase were studied on the indigenous Agrostis magellanica Lam. and the invasive alien Agrostis stolonifera L. on Marion Island (46° 54′ S, 37° 45′ E). Leaves of A. magellanica were more deeply ridged, thicker and more sclerophyllus than those of A. stolonifera. Mesophyll cells of A. magellanica were larger but the number of cells per unit leaf area and the total area of chloroplast per unit leaf area were the same for the two species. Maximum CO2 assimilation rates for the two species did not differ (mean maxima …
