Secondary Tissues in Dicot Root of Plants

The following points highlight the two types of secondary tissues in dicot root of Plants. The types are: 1. Secondary Vascular Tissues 2. Secondary Ground Tissues or Periderm. Type # 1. Secondary Vascular Tissues: Stage I: Conjunctive parenchyma cells lying on the inner edges of the primary phloem bundles become meristematic. They give rise to small quantity of secondary xylem [...]

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. [...]
