- woody perennial plant, typically having a single stem or trunk growing to a considerable height and bearing lateral branches at some distance from the ground.
- :a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis. Its molecule contains a magnesium atom held in a porphyrin ring.
- seed-bearing part of a plant, consisting of reproductive organs (stamens and carpels) that are typically surrounded by a brightly colored corolla (petals) and a green calyx (sepals).
- fence of wooden stakes or iron railings fixed in the ground, forming an enclosure or defense.
- tissue:The outer layers of tissue of woody roots and stems, consisting of the cork cambium and the tissues produced by it, such as cork.
- protective and waxy or hard layer covering the epidermis of a plant, invertebrate, or shell.
- mesophyll:The spongy mesophyll is a type of photosynthetic tissue found in the leaves of most plants.
- culture propagation : It makes use of parts of a plant to generate multiple copies of the plant in a very short duration. The technique exploits the property of totipotency of plant cell which means that any cell from any part of the plant can be used to generate a whole new plant.
- tissue:A ground tissue is a plant tissue other than those of the dermal tissues and the vascular tissues. It arises from the ground meristem. It fills in the soft parts of the plants, such as cortex, pith, pericycle, etc.
- meristem:Secondary, or lateral, meristems, which are found in all woody plants and in some herbaceous ones, consist of the vascular cambium and the cork cambium. They produce secondary tissues from a ring of vascular cambium in stems and roots.
- tissue: the tissue in higher plants that constitutes the vascular system, consisting of phloem and xylem, by which water and nutrients are conducted throughout the plant.
- flattened structure of a higher plant, typically green and blade-like, that is attached to a stem directly or via a stalk. Leaves are the main organs of photosynthesis and transpiration
40 Clues: spreading of something more widely • of a plant normally below the ground • or wound (a person or animal) with a bullet or arrow: • sharp explosive cry of certain animals, especially a dog, fox, or seal. • upper layer of earth that may be dug or plowed and in which plants grow • :the main woody stem of a tree as distinct from its branches and roots. • ...
