The Section is unusual in emphasizing vertical integration across disciplinary boundaries and collaboration with faculty from the applied plant sciences, chemistry and engineering. The section plays an important role in evolutionary studies. However, teaching and research in plant ecology is conducted by faculty in the Section of Ecology and Systematics, while plant systematics is primarily the responsibility of faculty in the Bailey Hortorium. 1.2 Faculty research 1.3 Graduate program The section provides the administrative base for the Graduate Field of Plant Biology (formerly Botany). Approximately 30 graduate students are associated with faculty in the section. The graduate program within the Section covers the following areas of concentration: plant physiology; plant molecular biology; plant cell biology/cytology; plant morphology/anatomy/biomechanics; and paleobotany. 1.4 Undergraduate program

BOT 435: Plant Anatomy Home Portfolio Resources Assignments Anatomy Around Us Web Quizzes In-class Quizzes Anatomy Around Us : We live in a world of plants, all of which have anatomy. The purpose of this exercise is to explore the anatomy of everyday plants: food, wood, cultivated and wildland plants. Each student will bring in a total of eight items during the quarter (signed-up in advance). Each item should be accompanied by a data sheet . In the case of food items, bring at least enough to allow dissection and for everyone who wishes to taste the item. For cultivated and wildland plants, bring the part of interest, with adequate material for dissection. Wood items require observation of the grain; if an item is valuable, but the grain is not visible without cutting or sanding, don't bring it. All items will be discussed and photographed. You will be provided with copies of the photos. Please take notes. From the notes, photos, and your original data sheet, put together a short report on the item, due the following week. These reports will likely form a major part of your portfolio, so take care with them. 40% of course grade Data sheet (two per page; please fill out in advance)

These two tissues extend from the leaves to the roots, and are vital conduits for water and nutrient transport. In a sense, they are to plants what veins and arteries are to animals. The structure of xylem and phloem tissue depends on whether the plant is a flowering plant (including dicots and monocots) or a gymnosperm (polycots). The terms dicot, monocot and polycot are summarized in the following table. Class Monocotyledoneae: Monocots Flower parts in 3's or multiple of 3's; one cotyledon inside seed; parallel leaf venation; includes Lilium Amaryllis Iris Agave Yucca , orchids, duckweeds, annual grasses, bamboos and palms.

The grain pattern is also determined by the plane in which the logs are cut at the saw mill. In transverse or cross sections, the annual rings appear like concentric bands, with rays extending outward like the spokes of a wheel. Cross (transverse) section of a grand fir ( Abies grandis ) log in the Pacific northwest forest of North America. The annual rings appear like concentric bands and can be counted to age-date the tree. The darker wood is called heartwood, while the lighter wood is called sapwood. This basswood ( Tilia americana ) trunk cross section has 24 distinct annual rings. The central core of wood (#1 in close-up photo) counts as the first year of growth since the pith is no longer present. The smaller series of concentric rings (knot) at the bottom of the photo is a lateral branch embedded in the main trunk.

The annual rings appear like concentric bands and can be counted to age-date the tree. This is a ring-porous wood, with bands of large, porous spring vessels. Smaller, dense tracheids and vessels occupy the wider gaps between the spring bands. In this wood, the spring vessels actually appear darker and are easier to count. In pine wood, the darker, summer bands are easier to count.

Return to General Biology Homepage General References PLANTS AND THEIR STRUCTURE PLANTS AND THEIR STRUCTURE II Introduction Plant organs are composed of tissue, groups of cells that work together to perform a physiological or mechanical function. The variations of tissues are due to differences in component cells and their type of attachment to each other. Plant tissues are divided into two major categories: meristematic tissues composed of actively dividing cells, and permanent tissues composed of mature and specialized cell types. Certain permanent tissues ( parenchyma - large, "empty" cells in bottom-half of this image; collenchyma ; and sclerenchyma ) are relatively simple in that they contain only one cell type, and are often referred to as fundamental tissues. Complex tissues (e.g., xylem phloem epidermis ) contain more than one cell type. In this exercise you will learn the basic parts (organs) of a plant, and the microscopic anatomy of roots, stems, and leaves of dicots and monocots examples ). Click

Angiosperms are by far the most diverse group of plants known (over 275,000 named species and thought to be at least that many more unknown to science). Within the Angiosperms, there are two plant groups, the Monocots and the Dicots .

The theme is stem, root and leaf fundamental structure and function The Virtual Plant explores some normal and some of the abnormal (anomalous) structures that exist in Angiosperms and Gymnosperms. Hopefully, some of you may stop to ask "why is the internal structure of plants so different?" Alternatively, "why in some plants, is plant structure so regular and predictable?"
