Prep notes for Nov. 23, 2004: secondary growth
This week you'll probably have to look beyond Stern. Stern's coverage of
seconday growth in woody stems is terrible. I'll have photocopies of
another book's coverage available.
Concepts: wood, bark, cork, vascular cambium, cork cambium, fusform
initials, ray initials, periclinal divisions, anticlinal divisions, annual
rings, heartwood, sapwood, rays
Questions:
- What is the anatomy of wood?
- How do woody plants increase in diameter?
