These elements may be tabulated as follows: Deep-seated Periderm. L Phellem Phellogen Phelloderm Cork. Phelloid. Initial or meristem layer. Inside layers, never corky nor lionified. The term phellem here is used for all the tissue cut off to- ward the circumference; that part of it whose walls become lignified is called phelloid, while all the cells cut off centrip-.
