Phloem: Ontogeny and Phylogeny | Plants

Phloem consists of sieve cell, sieve tube, companion cell, phloem parenchyma and fibre. 1. Sieve Cell-Origin: The mother cells of sieve cells vary in shape. They are slender, short cylindrical to elongate with both ends tapering. Numerous primary pit fields occur on lateral walls. During differentiation the mother cells elongate. Vacuole appears in the cytoplasm that streams actively. The cell [...]

Vessel: Origin and Phylogeny | Plants

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Origin and Development of Vessel 2. Phylogeny of Vessel. Origin and Development of Vessel: Trachea (or vessel) originates from meristematic cells (Fig. 10.4) that are grouped together in a longitudinal file. The meristematic cells are known as xylem mother cell that develops from procambial cells in the primary xylem. In secondary xylem [...]

Xylem Parenchyma: Origin and Phylogeny | Complex Tissue

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Origin of Xylem Parenchyma 2. Phylogeny of Ray Parenchyma 3. Phylogeny of Axial Parenchyma. Origin of Xylem Parenchyma: Xylem parenchymas cells are present both in primary and secondary xylem; accordingly their origin also differs. In primary xylem they originate from procambium. In secondary xylem ray parenchyma cells originate from the ray initials [...]
