THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE PHELLOGEN IN ROBINIA PSEUDACACIA L. [PDF]
SummaryThe ontogenetic development of the phellogen in Robinia pseudacacia plants was studied. The first phellogen differentiates in the seedling stage from collenchyma cells in the second or third layer beneath the epidermis. The subsequent phellogen is periodically derived from phloem parenchyma cells.The site of phellogen initiation was shown to be ...

Phellogen (cork cambium) usually produces cork tissue, but when flooded it produces secondary aerenchyma, comprising living cells with non-suberized walls in the stems, roots, and root nodules of some Fabaceae.

The Making of Plant Armor : The Periderm [PDF]
The periderm acts as armor protecting the plant's inner tissues from biotic and abiotic stress. It forms during the radial thickening of plant organs such as stems and roots and replaces the function of primary protective tissues such as the epidermis ...

The potato suberin feruloyl transferase FHT which accumulates in the phellogen is induced by wounding and regulated by abscisic and salicylic acids [PDF]
The present study provides new insights on the role of the potato (Solanum tuberosum) suberin feruloyl transferase FHT in native and wound tissues, leading to conclusions about hitherto unknown properties of the phellogen. In agreement with the enzymatic role of FHT, it is shown that its transcriptional activation and protein accumulation are specific ...

Ontogenesis and structure of phelloid in Viburnum opulus L.
The ontogenesis and structure of phelloid cells was studied in the cork tissue of Viburnum opulus L. Phelloid was found to form as the result of division of various cells of the phellogen zone (from phellogen proper to subepidermal cells).
