Product Overview
The ACHYRANTHUS ASPER & BOUGHANVILLA – ANOMALOUS SEC.GROWTH STEM CHART is a meticulously designed educational tool for in-depth botanical studies. This chart provides a clear, labeled visualization of anomalous secondary growth patterns in the stems of Achyranthus asper and Bougainvillea, two key plant species exhibiting unique cambial activity. The high-resolution illustrations highlight the irregular vascular cambium, phloem, and xylem formation, making it indispensable for comparative anatomical analysis. Crafted on durable, laminated paper with a waterproof coating, this chart ensures long-lasting use in laboratory and classroom settings. The precise labeling and color-coded sections facilitate easy identification of structural variations, aiding researchers, students, and educators in understanding complex plant growth mechanisms. Whether used for reference during dissections or as a teaching aid, this chart bridges theoretical knowledge and practical observation with unmatched clarity.
FAQs
1. What type of anomalies does this chart highlight in secondary growth?
This chart specifically illustrates irregular cambial activity, including eccentric vascular bundles and discontinuous xylem/phloem rings in Achyranthus asper and Bougainvillea stems.
2. Is this chart suitable for microscopy reference?
While the chart provides detailed macroscopic visuals, it complements rather than replaces microscopic slides, serving as a comparative guide for structural identification.
3. Can this chart be used for field studies?
The laminated, waterproof material makes it durable for outdoor use, though it’s primarily designed for controlled lab or classroom environments.
4. Are there alternative charts for normal secondary growth?
Yes, standard secondary growth charts are available separately, focusing on typical dicot stem structures like sunflower or Tilia for comparative studies.
5. How should this chart be stored to maintain its quality?
Store flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading of the laminated surface.
