Product Overview
The Epigeal Seed Germination (Bean & Sunflower) – Anomalous Secondary Growth Stem Chart is a meticulously designed educational tool for visualizing the germination process and secondary growth patterns in dicotyledonous plants. This chart provides a clear, labeled illustration of how bean and sunflower seeds develop above-ground cotyledons during germination, along with the anomalous thickening of stems due to secondary growth. The high-resolution, laminated surface ensures durability against moisture and frequent handling, making it ideal for long-term use in laboratories, classrooms, or research settings. Each section is annotated with precise botanical terminology, highlighting key structures such as the hypocotyl, epicotyl, vascular bundles, and cork cambium. The chart’s vibrant colors and detailed diagrams facilitate easy comprehension of complex growth mechanisms, aiding in comparative studies between normal and anomalous stem development. Whether used for self-study or instructional purposes, this chart serves as an indispensable reference for understanding plant morphology and developmental biology.
FAQs
1. What is the primary purpose of this germination chart?
This chart is designed to illustrate the epigeal germination process in bean and sunflower seeds, emphasizing the anomalous secondary growth in stems for educational and research applications.
2. Is this chart compatible with standard lab display boards?
Yes, the chart is sized to fit most laboratory or classroom display boards and can be easily mounted using pins or adhesive strips.
3. Are there alternative charts available for hypogeal germination?
While this chart focuses on epigeal germination, separate charts for hypogeal germination (e.g., pea or maize) may be available depending on the supplier’s catalog.
4. How should this chart be stored to maintain its quality?
Store the chart in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight. Rolling it in a protective tube when not in use will prevent creases or edge damage.
