Organization of
Roots
DICOT root • Organized xylem structure- bundles are
arranged in a ring • example is a sunflower root • fewer root hairs than monocots
Some MONOCOT root • Unorganized xylem structure -scattered amongst cell in bundles • example is a corn root • many root hairs

Meristematic Tissue Within the meristems certain cells are able to divide
repeatedly into two sister cells: 1. Initial - the self perpetuating sister cell that remains in the
meristem
2. Derivative - the other sister cell which moves into the plant body. These may also continue to divide until they become differentiated into specific types of cells
There are two types of meristems: Apical & Lateral
(a) Apical Meristematic Tissue
Apical Meristem occur at the tips of the roots and shoots and they are
responsible for extension of the plant body.
Apical meristems give rise to the primary tissues of the plant, forming
the primary plant body.
Since there are three tissue systems in plants, the apical meristem gives
rise to three primary meristems:
1) Protoderm - gives rise to the outer, protective coating of the plant
2) Procambium - gives rise to the vascular tissue
3) Ground meristem - gives rise to ground tissue

(b) Lateral Meristematic Tissue Lateral Meristem responsible for lateral growth and they produce
the secondary tissues which constitute the secondary plant body
Lateral meristems are called cambia (cambium).
There are two types: 1) Vascular cambium - gives rise to secondary vascular tissue, xylem to the
inside and phloem to the outside 2) Cork cambium - gives rise to mostly cork. It lies outside the vascular
cambium.
Intercalary meristems: Some grasses have neither a vascular cambium nor a cork cambium, but have this one. They develop at intervals along stems, and their tissues added to stem length
