Dicotyledonous Root and Monocotyledonous Root | Plants

The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between dicotyledonous root and monocotyledonous root. Difference # Dicotyledonous Root: 1. Epidermis is single layered. 2. Cortex is composed of parenchyma cells only. 3. Pericycle gives rise to a portion of vascular cambium that gives rise to secondary vascular tissues and phellogen—the meristem of cork. 4.
