The chief difference is that the piliferous layer is distinct in origin from the cortex, while in the Barley they were seen to have a common origin. A second type is illustrated by the Pea and other Leguminosae. (Fig. 64, B.) Here the stele, cortex, piliferous layer, and root-cap all originate from a common mass of meristem, which occupies the apex, and segregates gradually into the several tissues as the cells mature.

Here the stele, cortex, piliferous layer, and root-cap all originate from a common mass of meristem, which occupies the apex, and segregates gradually into the several tissues as the cells mature. Such facts show that no theory of " germinal layers " can have any general application in the development of the plant-body. The normal increase in number of roots is by the formation of lateral rootlets, which originate from deeply-seated tissues, and force their way b a bericu 'enl '°*.
