A vascular bundle is a part of the transport system in vascular plants. The transport itself happens in the stem, which exists in two forms: xylem and phloem. Both these tissues are present in a vascular bundle, which in addition will include supporting and protective tissues. There is also a tissue between xylem and phloem, which is the cambium.
Plant stem: Vascular bundles: Numerous scattered bundles in ground parenchyma, cambium rarely present, no differentiation between cortical and stelar regions Ring of primary bundles with cambium, differentiated into cortex and stele Flowers: Parts in threes or multiples of three (e.g. 3, 6 or 9 petals)
Most of the vascular cambium is here in vascular bundles (ovals of phloem and xylem together) but it is starting to join these up as at point F between the bundles. The vascular cambium is the main growth tissue in the stems and roots of many plants, specifically in dicots such as buttercups and oak trees, gymnosperms such as pine trees, as ...
Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue, formed of more than one cell type, found in vascular plants. The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally. There are also two meristems associated with vascular tissue: the vascular cambium and the cork cambium.
Number of parts of each flower In threes (flowers are trimerous) In fours or fives (tetramerous or pentamerous) Number of furrows or pores in pollen One Three Number of cotyledons (leaves in the seed) One Two Arrangement of vascular bundles in the stem: Scattered In concentric circles Roots Are adventitious: Develop from the radicle
In plants undergoing secondary growth, the pericycle contributes to the vascular cambium often diverging into a cork cambium. [citation needed] In angiosperms certain molecules within the endodermis and the surrounding vasculature are sent to the pericycle which promotes the growth of the root meristems. [citation needed]
The vascular cambium forms between the xylem and phloem in the vascular bundles and connects to form a continuous cylinder. The vascular cambium cells divide to produce secondary xylem to the inside and secondary phloem to the outside. As the stem increases in diameter due to production of secondary xylem and secondary phloem, the cortex and ...
Fascicled flowers of Butea monosperma, (Flame of the forest) Details of fasciculation of florets in an inflorescence of a Sansevieria species. In botany, a fascicle is a bundle of leaves or flowers growing crowded together; alternatively the term might refer to the vascular tissues that supply such an organ with nutrients. [1]
