Wood is the most abundant biomass produced by land plants and is mainly used for timber,
pulping, and paper making. Wood (secondary xylem) is derived from vascular cambium, and …

The development of secondary vascular tissue enhances the transport capacity and
mechanical strength of plant bodies, while contributing a huge proportion of the world's …

Precise coordination of cell fate decisions is a hallmark of multicellular organisms.
Especially in tissues with non-stereotypic anatomies, dynamic communication between …

Secondary phloem and xylem tissues are produced through the activity of vascular
cambium, the cylindrical secondary meristem which arises among the primary plant tissues …

The stems and roots of most dicot plants increase in diameter by radial growth, due to the
activity of secondary meristems. Two types of meristems function in secondary plant body …

Wood (also termed secondary xylem) is the most abundant biomass produced by plants,
and is one of the most important sinks for atmospheric carbon dioxide. The development of …

Unlike herbaceous plants, woody plants undergo volumetric growth (aka secondary growth)
through wood formation, during which the secondary xylem (ie, wood) differentiates from the …

Vascular tissue, comprising xylem and phloem, is responsible for the transport of water and
nutrients throughout the plant body. Such tissue is continually produced from stable …

Vascular cambium contributes to lateral growth in dicotyledonous plants and gymnosperms.
Physiological, genetics and molecular studies indicate that cambial activity is regulated by a …

Secondary xylem and phloem originate from a lateral meristem called the vascular cambium
that consists of one to several layers of meristematic cells. Recent lineage tracing studies …
