Other plants in which food-making is carried on chiefly by the stem include the asparagus.
Organic isothiocyanates (ITCs) are produced by plants, in which they are released from glucosinolates by myrosinase.
At least four T0 plants in which OsIRE1 was replaced with the K519A allele and two T0 plants in which OsIRE1 was replaced with the K833A allele were independently obtained.
bryophyte -- Plants in which the gametophyte generation is the larger, persistent phase; they generally lack conducting tissues.
(This is in contrast to the vascular plants, in which the dominant photosynthetic phase is the sporophyte).
In 1790, Goethe wrote a visionary essay called "The Morphology of Plants," in which he argued that all plant organs, including flowers, started out as leaves.
About 300 bc the Greek philosopher Theophrastus wrote Peri phytōn historia ("Inquiry into Plants"), in which he discussed transplanting of trees and the treatment of tree wounds.
Comparable trends occur in flowering plants, in which leaves at successive levels of plant maturity often show a progressive increase in the complexity of lobing or toothing.
In plants in which secondary growth occurs, the collenchyma tissue is only temporarily functional and becomes crushed as woody tissue develops.
This is readily seen in short-day plants, in which precocious reproduction upon exposure to long dark periods is followed by early death.
The angiosperms are vascular seed plants in which the ovule (egg) is fertilized and develops into a seed in an enclosed hollow ovary.
