Answer
A phyllode is a modified petiole or a shoot that connects the stem with leaf; its function resembles that of a leaf. A phylloclade, by contrast, is a modified stem, that is responsible for photosynthesis. Melanoxylone is an example of a plant with phyllodes while cactus and cocoloba have phylloclades.
