Question

difference between storied and non storied cambium

Answer 1

Storied or Stratified Cambium: In TLS the initials are arranged in horizontal regular file having a stratified structure. The initials are usually short and all of about the same length. The ends of the initials occur approximately at the same level.
Non-Storied or Non-Stratified Cambium : In longitudinal tangential view the tapered end of fusiform initials overlap each other in a random arrangement. For example - Rhus. Non-storied Cambium is more common and longer than the storied type.

Answer 2

Following is the difference between Storied and Non-storied Cambium.

The storied cambium is also known as Stratified Cambium.

• When the fusiform initials (a special type of cells that are placed vertically elongated in shape) are packed in horizontal layers, the arrangement of the entire cambium is called storied cambium.
• In this case, the end of each of the fusiform initials appears to be at the same level.

Whereas, when plants consist of short fusiform initials, they are known to have non-storied cambium or Non-stratified Cambium.

• The ends of each of the fusiform initials in this case overlap together and are not present at one level.

Hence, the difference between Storied and Non-storied Cambium has been stated above.
