Anatomy of Flowering Plants |
|
| Axillary bud | Shoot apical meristem |
| Intrafascicular cambium | Primary lateral meristem |
| Interfascicular cambium, cork cambium | Secondary lateral meristem |
| Bark | Includes secondary phloem and periderm |
| Periderm | Phellem (cork)
Phellogen (cork cambium) Phelloderm (secondary cortex) |
| Bulliform cells | Modified adaxial epidermal cells in grasses |
| Parenchyma | Isodiametric, thin cellulosic cell wall.
Photosynthesis, storage and secretion |
| Collenchyma | Present below epidermis in dicotyledonous plants.
No intercellular spaces, thickened corner due to cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin deposition. |
| Sclerids | Present in fruit walls of nuts, pulp of fruits (guava, pear, sapota), seed coat of legumes and tea leaves |
| Xylem vessels | Multicellular, absent in gymnosperms |
| Xylem tracheids | Unicellular, elongated with tapering ends and lignified wall |
| Endarch primary xylem | Stem |
| Exarch primary xylem | Root |
| Ray parenchymatous cells | Radial conduction of water |
| Phloem of gymnosperms | Lack sieve tubes and companion cells.
Contain albuminous and sieve cells. |
| Companion cells | Specialised parenchymatous cells and help in maintaining pressure gradient in sieve tubes |
| Phloem parenchyma | Plasmodesmatal connections between the cells.
Absent in most of the monocots |
| Root hairs | Unicellular elongations of epidermal cell |
| Trichomes | Epidermal hairs on the stem |
| Dicot root | Vascular bundles- Radial, diarch to tetrarch, small pith |
| Monocot root | Vascular bundles- Radial, polyarch large pith.
No secondary growth. |
| Dicot stem | Hypodermis- Collenchymatous
Endodermis- Starch sheath Pericycle- Semi-lunar patches of sclerenchyma Vascular bundles- Conjoint, collateral, open and arranged in a ring |
| Monocot stem | Hypodermis- Sclerenchymatous
Bundle sheath- Surrounds each vascular bundle Vascular bundles- Conjoint, collateral, closed (no cambium) and scattered |
| Dicot leaf | Dorsiventral, more stomata on abaxial surface.
Mesophyll- palisade parenchyma (towards adaxial) and spongy parenchyma (towards abaxial). Presence of air cavity. |
| Monocot leaf | Isobilateral, stomata equally distributed on both the surfaces.
Mesophyll- not differentiated into palisade and spongy parenchyma. Presence of bulliform cells. |
| Casparian strips | Made up of suberin and present on the radial and tangential walls of endodermal cells of roots. |
| Pericycle | Parenchymatous.
Initiation of lateral roots and vascular cambium during secondary growth. |
| Spring wood | Early wood, lighter, lower density and have vessels with wider cavities |
| Autumn wood | Late wood, darker, denser and have vessels with narrow cavities |
| Lenticels | Lens shaped openings in the stem of woody trees.
Help in gaseous exchange. |
