The cork then becomes the external protective layer of the root, whilst the cortical parenchyma is functionally replaced by that which is formed internally by the cork cambium. Note in this new tissue, formed peripherally to the phloem by the agency of the phellogen, the presence of isolated cells with thick lignified walls. These are " stone-cells," or stereoblasts. Examine the younger parts of the root, and look out for the small projections indicating the presence of young lateral roots. Cut sections (longitudinal ones are better, but transverse ones are easier and will do nearly as well) through the root at these places. All the sections should be kept, and probably about six will be required. Pick out those which have gone through the longitudinal axis of the young root (i.e. medianly and longitudinally), and observe that it arises deep within the tissues. Trace the relation of the endodermis. This will be seen to be expanded, and finally ruptured by the young root, whereas the outermost layer of the pericycle is continuous with its external cell-layer. Thus you will conclude that the rootlet has been formed from the pericycle. Note its position--just opposite a ray of the protoxylem of the mother-root (cf. the Mustard root). Examine its apex, and observe the root-cap which covers it, and which is formed by the abundant tangential divisions of the superficial cells (dermatogen) of the dividing (or merismatic) tissue of the growing point within the root-cap.

Download or read book Practical Botany for Gardeners written by Geoff Hodge and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gardening can be frustratingly shrouded in secrecy. Fickle plants make seemingly spontaneous decisions to bloom or bust, seeds sprout magically in the blink of an eye, and deep-rooted mysteries unfold underground and out of sight. Understanding basic botany is like unlocking a horticultural code; fortunately learning a little science can reveal the secrets of the botanical universe and shed some light on what’s really going on in your garden. Practical Botany for Gardeners provides an elegant and accessible introduction to the world of botany. It presents the essentials that every gardener needs to know, connecting explanations of scientific facts with useful gardening tips. Flip to the roots section and you’ll not only learn how different types of roots support a plant but also find that adding fungi to soil aids growth. The pruning section both defines “lateral buds” and explains how far back on a shoot to cut in order to propagate them. The book breaks down key areas and terminology with easy-to-navigate chapters arranged by theme, such as plant types, plant parts, inner workings, and external factors. “Great Botanists” and “Botany in Action” boxes delve deeper into the fascinating byways of plant science. This multifaceted book also includes two hundred botanical illustrations and basic diagrams that hearken to the classic roots of botany. Part handbook, part reference, Practical Botany for Gardeners is a beautifully captivating read. It’s a must for garden lovers and backyard botanists who want to grow and nurture their own plant knowledge.

Book excerpt: Forensic Botany: A Practical Guide is an accessible introduction to the way in which botanical evidence is identified, collected and analysed in criminal cases. Increasingly this form of evidence is becoming more important in forensic investigation and yet there are few trained botanists able to assist in such cases. This book is intended to show how useful simple collection methods and standard plant analysis can be in the course of such investigations and is written in a clear and accessible manner to enhance understanding of the subject for the non-specialist. Clearly structured throughout, this book combines well known collection techniques in a field oriented format that can be used for casework. Collection of evidence differs from formal plant collection in that most professional plant collectors are gathering entire plants or significant portions of a plant for permanent storage and reference. Evidence frequently consists of fragments, sometimes exceedingly tiny. Exemplars (examples of reference plants) are collections of plants made in the manner a botanist would collect them. These collections are necessary to link or exclude evidence to or from a scene. Various methods that allow easy collection, transportation, and preservation of evidence are detailed throughout the book. This book is written for those who have no formal background working with plants. It can be used as a practical guide for students taking forensic science courses, law enforcement training, legal courses, and as a template for plant collection at any scene where plants occur and where rules or laws are involved. Veterinarians, various environmental agencies, anthropologists, and archeologists are examples of disciplines that are more recently in need of plant evidence. Veterinarians are becoming more active in pursuing cases of animals that have been abused or are victims of illegal killing. Anthropologists and archeologists are often called to help with body recovery in outdoor environments. Environmental agencies are increasingly forced to adopt rules for resource protection, are in need of a guide for procedures for plant evidence collection and application. The format of the book is designed to present the reader with all the information needed to conduct a botanical analysis of a crime scene; to highlight the forensic significance of the botanical evidence that may be present; how to collect that evidence in the correct manner and preserve and store that evidence appropriately- also shows how to conduct a laboratory analysis of the plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Second Book of Botany: A Practical Guide to the Observation and Study of Plants This First Book of Botany, for the use of beginners, was designed to cultivate the observing powers of the young by making plants themselves the regular objects of study. It was published three years ago, and adopted by numerous schools, and, upon trial, it proved so satisfactory that there have been frequent and urgent calls for a more advanced book upon the same method. After much delay, which I regret, but have been unable to avoid, a Second Book, carrying out the plan, is now ready, together with an instructive series of Botanical Charts, which will be helpful to both teachers and pupils. In the preface to the First Book, and in an Essay reprinted at the end of the present volume, I have stated the purpose that led to these publications: the present extension of the method affords a suitable occasion for presenting some further considerations in illustration of it. I had two objects in view, one relating to the subject of Botany, and the other to the mental cultivation of the young. As regards tho science itself, it seemed to me to be very badly dealt with in the schools. In many it is not taught at all, and in others it is regarded as a kind of superfluous side-study, of such secondary importance that it matters little in what way it is treated. And so it is subordinated to the school routine, and pursued in a hurried and desultory manner, by books and recitations, and by memorizing second-hand information.
