This study of plant anatomy is based on newly available data on the
structure and spatial organization of the vascular system of
plants. For the first time, by means of a new technique of
intracellular moulding, the vascular system can be observed in its
length. Many examples are chosen from among the major groups of the
plant kingdom to illustrate the vast field of applications of
histological moulding: anatomical structures that have so far been
little understood or unknown are described and hypotheses relative
to the cambial functioning are presented. Following a summary of
basic concepts of xylem anatomy, the text is illustrated with many
diagrams and photographs of moulds made for the most part with
scanning electron microscope. The successive steps of the technical
implementation of moulding, are described with precision. The book
is addressed not only to scientists and students, but also to
professionals concerned with wood, trees, and plants in general.
