ADENIA GLAUCA SCHINZ View in CoL
Stem cortex has chloroplasts ( Fig. 3G View FIG ). Wood is parenchymatous. The axial matrix is formed by sparsely clusters of gelatinous, libriform fibers, parenchyma cells and vessels. Radial system uniseriate and multiseriate. Some uniseriate rays have lignified cells mainly where ray parenchyma cells meet the vessels. Clusters of fiber caps (primary phloem) are above every vascular bundle and appear separated of the vascular bundle due to expansion of parenchyma cells in between them ( Fig. 3G, H View FIG ). Functional secondary phloem is in each bundle. Pith was not fixed.
Caudex cortex has chloroplasts and some amyloplasts.Wood is parenchymatous and formed by successive cambium ( Fig. 3I View FIG ). In between each ring of vascular cambium, conjunctive tissue is present as bands of parenchyma cells ( Fig. 4A View FIG ). Axial system is formed by bands of libriform fibers, septate fibers, gelatinous fibers ( Fig. 4B View FIG ), axial vasicentric parenchyma and scalariform or circular bordered pitting vessels. Ray system is proliferated multiseriate and amyloplasts are found in it. Some functional secondary phloem and few non-functional are in each vascular bundle ( Fig. 4C View FIG ). Pith was not available.
