Vascular cambium

Index Vascular cambium

The vascular cambium is the main growth layer in the stems and roots of many plants, specifically in dicots such as buttercups and oak trees, and gymnosperms such as pine trees. [1]

Auxin

Auxins (plural of auxin) are a class of plant hormones (or plant growth regulators) with some morphogen-like characteristics.

Cambium

A cambium (plural cambia or cambiums), in botany, is a tissue layer that provides partially undifferentiated cells for plant growth.

Cork cambium

Cork cambium (pl. cambia or cambiums) is a tissue found in many vascular plants as part of the epidermis.

New!!: Vascular cambium and Cork cambium · See more »

Cytokinin

Cytokinins (CK) are a class of plant growth substances (phytohormones) that promote cell division, or cytokinesis, in plant roots and shoots.

Dicotyledon

The dicotyledons, also known as dicots (or more rarely dicotyls), are one of the two groups into which all the flowering plants or angiosperms were formerly divided.

Ethylene

Ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) is a hydrocarbon which has the formula or H2C.

Gibberellin

Gibberellins (GAs) are plant hormones that regulate various developmental processes, including stem elongation, germination, dormancy, flowering, flower development and leaf and fruit senescence.

Grafting

Grafting or graftage is a horticultural technique whereby tissues of plants are joined so as to continue their growth together.

Gymnosperm

The gymnosperms are a group of seed-producing plants that includes conifers, cycads, Ginkgo, and gnetophytes.

Meristem

A meristem is the tissue in most plants containing undifferentiated cells (meristematic cells), found in zones of the plant where growth can take place.

Mitosis

In cell biology, mitosis is a part of the cell cycle when replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei.

New!!: Vascular cambium and Mitosis · See more »

Monocotyledon

Monocotyledons, commonly referred to as monocots, (Lilianae sensu Chase & Reveal) are flowering plants (angiosperms) whose seeds typically contain only one embryonic leaf, or cotyledon.

New!!: Vascular cambium and Monocotyledon · See more »

Phloem

In vascular plants, phloem is the living tissue that transports the soluble organic compounds made during photosynthesis and known as photosynthates, in particular the sugar sucrose, to parts of the plant where needed.

Pith

Pith, or medulla, is a tissue in the stems of vascular plants.

New!!: Vascular cambium and Pith · See more »

Plant hormone

Plant hormones (also known as phytohormones) are chemicals that regulate plant growth.

Sun scald

Sun scald is the freezing of bark following high temperatures in the winter season, resulting in permanent visible damage to bark.

Tissue (biology)

In biology, tissue is a cellular organizational level between cells and a complete organ.

Tree

In botany, a tree is a perennial plant with an elongated stem, or trunk, supporting branches and leaves in most species.

Unifacial cambium

The unifacial cambium (pl. cambia or cambiums) produces cells to the interior of its cylinder.

Vascular bundle

A vascular bundle is a part of the transport system in vascular plants.

New!!: Vascular cambium and Vascular bundle · See more »

Vascular plant

Vascular plants (from Latin vasculum: duct), also known as tracheophytes (from the equivalent Greek term trachea) and also higher plants, form a large group of plants (c. 308,312 accepted known species) that are defined as those land plants that have lignified tissues (the xylem) for conducting water and minerals throughout the plant.

Xylem

Xylem is one of the two types of transport tissue in vascular plants, phloem being the other.
