The section of the leaf shows a structure which affords effective protection against the hot, dry weather of most cycad localities (Fig. 29). The highly cutinized surface is almost impervious to water, and the stomata, or pores, on the under side of the leaf have a form well adapted to keeping the opening closed except when the air is full of moisture. Long, narrow cells with thick, Fig. 30.--Dioon spinulosum at Tierra Blanca, Mexico; plants growing on rocks with little soil, showing exposed roots; at the right the base of a trunk with an exposed root (+) nearly as large as the trunk itself. corky walls are abundant, and they give the leaf a maximum of rigidity combined with elasticity. THE ROOT No extensive study of the cycad root has been undertaken. There is a main tap root which tapers gradually and extends down to a great depth, so that small amounts of water are brought up even when the surface soil is very dry. Lateral branches are usually small and weak. When plants are growing on exposed rocks where there is little soil, the root development is remarkable (Fig. 30). In the specimen shown in the figure the upper part of the roots is entirely exposed. Sometimes such roots may extend along the exposed rock for many feet before entering the soil. In an extreme case a root was exposed for forty feet before it finally entered the soil. A peculiar feature of the root has attracted much more attention and investigation than the normal structure itself. The small, lateral roots often become infected by "bacterioids" which cause a swelling accompanied by a profuse dichotomous branching, and besides the roots begin to grow up instead of down, soon emerging above the surface of the soil in dense coralloid...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ferns (Filicales) Treated Comparatively With a View to Their Natural Classification, Vol. 1: Analytical Examination of the Criteria of Comparison Little do ye know your own blessedness; for to travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive, and the true success is to labour. R. L. Stevenson, Essay on El Dorado. IN this passage Stevenson enunciates a truth that applies with singular force to those who enter on morphological enquiry. To travel hopefully is the chosen pursuit of all who study large groups of organisms with a view to reducing them to order, so as to throw light on their origin and evolution. In such quests no one need expect under present conditions to arrive at the final destination of complete and assured knowledge. If any one should indulge this hope his disappointment is certain. Even if he did so arrive, and found himself able fully to demonstrate the whole truth, how greatly would the quest lose in its interest. It is in the pursuit of his El Dorado of evolutionary history, not in the arrival there, that the true blessedness of the morphologist lies. It behoves then those who travel on this journey not to hurry unduly, but to consider with critical care the manner of their journeying, rather than to seek short cuts to an elusive goal.
