Difference between Dicot and Monocot Stem | Botany

The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between dicot and monocot stem. Difference # Dicot Stem: 1. Ground tissue  in dicotyledonous stem is well-differentiated into extra-stelar and intra-stelar regions. Extra-stelar ground tissue is differentiated into three zones:—collenchymatous hypodermis, parenchyma and starch sheath; and intra- stelar ground tissue consists of pericycle—homogeneous or heterogeneous, large medulla and medullary rays. 2. [...]

Secondary Growth in Dicot Root | Botany

In this article we will discuss about the secondary growth in dicot root. Dicotyledonous roots have limited number of radially arranged vascular bundles. With the initiation of secondary growth some parenchymatous conjunctive tissue cells become meristematic beneath the phloem groups, thus forming strips of meristems equal to the number of phloem groups present. The cells of one-layered pericycle now divide. [...]
