Document Summary

Veins in leaves: protoderm cells develop into epidermis, guard cells, allow water to leave leaf and bring in co2. Secondary growth in stems: periderm: cork cambium and cork, bark: all tissue outside vascular cambium, as plant gets fatter, more periderm material will be put out. Heartwood: no longer conducts water, but strengthens stem. Middle to outside: heartwood, sapwood, vascular cambium, bark, living phloem, periderm, cork cambium, cork. If all cells of a body contain the same set of genes, how do they differentiate, and how does morphogenesis occur: differential expression of genes owing to differences in the environment each cell experiences. For ex. , positional information determines whether the cells produced by an apical meristem become protoderm, ground meristem, or procambium. Every step in development requires input from both genes and the environment! Developmental trajectories of a plant cell: as a new cell matures/specializes/differentiates, it follows one of these pathways:
