Last week’s Over the Garden Gate article focused on growing healthy turfgrass and various turf management practices to ...

All species of trees produce sap, and they have highly specialized vascular systems composed of xylem and phloem to ensure that the precious liquid travels effectively throughout the tree.

The cambium and its "zone" is a cell generator (reproductive tissue called growth meristem) that produces both the inner bark cells of the phloem and new living wood cells in the xylem.

It's transported around the tree by two different types of vessels known as the xylem and phloem. Xylem transport water and nutrients upwards from the roots, while phloem transports sugars and plant ...

And while most plants have a continuous column of water which flows inside them via a xylem and phloem, mosses don’t – just like some of the most ancient plants in Earth’s history. Most plants have a ...

And while most plants have a continuous column of water which flows inside them via a xylem and phloem, mosses don’t – just like some of the most ancient plants in Earth’s history.

In plants, radial growth is mediated by the cambium, a stem cell niche continuously producing wood (xylem) and bast (phloem) in a strictly bidirectional manner. While this process contributes large ...

These systems consist of two tissues: xylem and phloem. While the xylem enables the transport of water to the stems and leaves, the phloem helps transport sugars, made from photosynthesis ...
