At a somewhat higher level, the accessory secondary xylem closes across the gap (fig. 6, F). At a lower level (fig. 6, £), masses of xylem arise in the pericycle of one of the strands which formed part of the ring surrounding the leaf trace. Similar masses of pericyclic xylem occur outside the accessory secondary wood which closed the leaf gap dig. 6, F). The development at this point results in the formation of a closed ring of xvlem with cambium and phloem on the inside (fig. 6, (-'); at a slightly higher level, this becomes a tangled mass of tracheids.
