cataphyll- a reduced or scarcely developed leaf at the start of a plant's life (i.e., cotyledons) or in the early stages of leaf development Based on WordNet 3.0, Farlex clipart collection. © 2003-2012 Princeton University, Farlex Inc. ...
Within each leaf, the vascular tissue forms veins. The arrangement of veins in a leaf is called thevenationpattern. Monocots and dicots differ in their patterns of venation (Figure 2). Monocots have parallel venation; the veins run in straight lines across the length of the leaf without conver...
stipules: modified leaf appendages, uncommon in monocots but usually in pairs in dicots; protect the emerging leaf or bud lenticle: gas exchange stem cross section - heartwood: consist of old xylems; dead, hard and durable, the majority of a stem's cross-section; dark color due to the ...

Because of their hardiness conifers are most commonly found in the boreal forest that encircles the northern part of the world. Answer and Explanation:1 The leaves of conifers are either called needles or scales. These represent the two different leaf types commonly found on conifers. Needles ...
This indicates clearly that BOP function is conserved between monocots and dicots. Recently, partial defects in ligule development were reported in a single BOP mutant of barley, however, the sheath:blade ratio is not affected34. In addition, in the maize bop mutant, expression of BOP genes in...
Macroscopic fossil plants from the Upper Laetolil Beds, Laetoli, Tanzania, are described and where possible identified. Leaf impressions were recovered from the top of Tuff 8 at Locality 16 and show only primary and secondary venation. While many cannot be identified, some appear to belong to th...
Among dicots, defences involving such a cost (notably late development of photosynthetic systems in pendent soft young leaves) are typical of shade-tolerant species, which have longer-lived leaves than light-demanders. In contrast, among monocots late folding and rolling are found in both shade-...
