OFFSHOOT : is a collective term for the short, thickened lateral shoot or branches, growing out of the main stem in certain plants.
NODES : Segment of stem where leaves and lateral buds are attached.
DERMAL : This tissue covers the outer surface of the stem and usually functions to waterproof, protect and control gas exchange.
SPUR : Very compressed, fruiting twig found on some apples, pears, cherries, and ginkgo.
RUNNER : A type of stolon, horizontally growing on top of the ground and rooting at the nodes, aids in reproduction. e.g. garden strawberry.
CULM : Either hollow or solid stems with pronounced nodes and internodes.
STEM : The stem is a part of the plant that holds up other structures such as the leaves and flowers.
AERIAL : Stems grow above ground.
STOLON : A horizontal stem that produces rooted plantlets at its nodes and ends, forming near the surface of the ground.
MERISTEMS : Helps in longitudinal growth of plants . It is present at the base of leaves.
VASCULAR : This tissue provides long distance transport and structural support.
GROUND : This tissue usually consists mainly of parenchyma cells and fills in around the vascular tissue.
CORM : A short enlarged underground, storage stem, e.g. taro, crocus, gladiolus.
PRICKLE : Arise from the cortex and epidermis of plant stems.
CROWN : Compressed stem having leaves and flowers growing above and roots beneath. e.g. strawberry plant.
LEAFSCAR : Mark left on stem where leaf was attached. Often used in woody plant identification.
BARK : Protective outer tissue that develops with age. Used in woody plant identification.
LENTICEL : Pores that allow for gas exchange.
CANES : Stems with relatively large pith and usually living for only one to two years. e.g. rose.
BULB : A short vertical underground stem with fleshy storage leaves attached, e.g. onion, daffodil, tulip.
ACAULESCENT : Used to describe stems in plants that appear to be stemless.
PITH : Center of dicot plant stems.
CAMBIUM : This tissue is responsible for the secondary growth of stems and roots.
HERBACIOUS : Non woody, they die at the end of the growing season.
SUBTERRANEAN : This kind of stem is a modified plant structures that derive from stem tissue but exist under the soil surface.
BUDSCALES : Protect the more delicate, inner, foliage leaves or bud from drying up, from damage by birds, insects, and fungi.
INTERNODES : Section of a stem between two nodes.
WOODY : Hard textured stems with secondary xylem.
BUNDLESCAR : Marks left in the leaf scar from the vascular tissue attachment.
BUD : An embryonic shoot with immature stem tip.
DERMAL : Tissue that protects the plant from injury and water loss.
