Cell death of long-lived ray parenchyma cells during heartwood formation in trees

Journal of Wood Science
Cell death plays an important role in the determination of secondary xylem cell functions. Tracheary elements (TEs), such as vessel elements and tracheids, lose their organelles due to rapid autolysis after the completion of secondary wall thickening and
