Herein, what is the Phelloderm?
Phelloderm. Definition noun, plural: phelloderms (botany) A part of the periderm made up of cells produced inwardly by the cork cambium Supplement In woody plants, the epidermis is eventually replaced by a tougher, protective layer called bark.
Beside above, what secondary tissues arise from the Phellogen? Inside the periderm is the cork cambium (or phellogen), a secondary meristem that produces cork tissue (phellem) outwards and secondary cortex (phelloderm) inwards.
Beside this, what is the function of Phellogen?
Phellogen, which is also referred to as the cork cambium, is a tissue forming the meristematic part of plant tissues and its function is the formation of periderm which covers the stem, shoots as well as the roots. The inner side of the layer of phellogen forms the phelloderm and its outer side forms the suber.
