Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Xylem and sclerenchyma areas increased with stem area.
- Observation Furrowed stem samples had 20–30% xylem and 20% sclerenchyma.
- Observation Furrowed stems had mean xylem area 1.28 mm2.
- Observation Nonfurrowed stems had mean xylem area 2.11 mm2.
- Observation Xylem area did not differ significantly between groups.
- Observation Nonfurrowed vines had no sclerenchyma.
- Mechanism Sclerenchyma may resist stem bending.
