Leaf scar on a Fatsia japonica stem
Bildnummer 13272668
| A leaf scar on a stem of Fatsia japonica. The picture shows cut lengths of a stem of F. japonica that has shed its leaves. The horseshoe shaped area, picture centre, is a leaf scar. The ails"" of the horseshoe are bundle scars, showing the sites of vascular bundles within the leaf stalk. The small brown surface protuberance just above the scar is a dormant bud. Deciduous woody plants shed leaves actively by the process of abscission. At the base of the leaf stalk a zone of specialised cells develops. On the leaf side, a layer of small cells with weak walls is formed - the abscission layer. On the stem side, cells become thickened with a cork-like substance, suberin. This is the protective layer, shown in the picture. After leaf fall, the stem interior is thereby insulated from the effects of winter weather. The bud may, but not always, subsequently develop into a new side shoot." | |
