Primary Tissues in Dicotyledonous Stem | Plants

In stem there exist three tissue systems — dermal, vascular and ground tissue, which respectively consist of epidermis, vascular bundle and all tissues except the former two. A great diversity is observed in the arrangement and structure of primary tissues, a brief account of them that commonly occur in mature stems of dicot is mentioned below beginning from the periphery [...]

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. Xylem is monarch to hexarch. [...]

Nodal Anatomy of Dicotyledon Stems | Plants

In dicotyledon the vascular bundles are usually more or less in a ring and show different arrangements at the nodes and internodes. The vascular cylinders are generally continuous at the internode and their continuity is interrupted at the nodal region due to the emergence of bundles that terminate either at the leaf bases, axillary buds or stipules etc. At the [...]
