Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Primary and secondary secretory canal systems were distinguished.
- Observation Two axial parenchyma types occurred in the secondary phloem.
- Observation Distribution, strand cell properties, starch and collapse behavior distinguished the two parenchyma types.
- Observation Three stages of secretory canal development were distinguished.
- Observation Canal lumina formed as meristematic cells differentiated into epithelial secretory cells.
- Observation Actively secreting epithelial cells had leucoplast groups accompanied by 2 to 3 mitochondria each.
- Association Terpene secretion accompanied swelling and loosening of walls facing canal lumina.
- Observation Highly vacuolated senescent epithelial cells showed no secretory processes.
