FIG. 113.—Part of same, more highly magnified pronounced radial bands of secondary wood and phloem. The protoxylem groups are incompletely united in the center, and a pithlike cluster of parenchymatous cells is consequently found in the midst of the primary wood, a condition quite frequently present both in herbaceous dicotyledons and generally in the monocotyledons. In the woody dicotyledons and in the conifers a structure comparable to the pith of the stem is ordinarily absent in the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Jeffrey, Edward C.
