Dicotyledonous root

• The outermost layer is epidermis.
• The cortex consists of several layers of thin-walled parenchyma cells with intercellular spaces.
• The innermost layer of the cortex is called
• The tangential as well as radial walls of the endodermal cells have a deposition of water-impermeable, waxy material suberin in the form of casparian strips.
• Next to endodermis lies a few layers of thick-walled parenchyomatous cells referred to as pericycle.
• The parenchymatous cells which lie between the xylem and the phloem are called conjuctive tissue.
• There are usually two to four xylem and phloem patches, later a cambium ring develops between the xylem and phloem.
• All tissues on the inner side of the endodermis such as pericycle, vascular bundles and pith constitute the stele.
