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...

Download or read book CYCADS WORLD ED 2E written by Jones Dl. and published by Smithsonian. This book was released on 2002-09-17 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cycads superficially resemble palms and are often misidentified as such. However, cycads are actually a unique assemblage of primitive plants that have been around for at least 250 million years. They have become highly sought after for gardens, both private and public, and their present status as endangered plants has engendered an upsurge of interest in their conservation. With Cycads of the World, David Jones has achieved that difficult task of writing a scientifically accurate text, which is both easy to read and to understand. For this second edition David Jones has added information covering over 100 new species and subspecies of cycads, and updated his material on the 200 species from the first edition. Each entry includes a full description, distribution and habitat information, and a detailed cultivation and propagation guide. Over 360 color photographs plus many other illustrations and maps facilitate easy identification for all living species. This second edition of Cycads of the World makes a fine addition to the library of anyone interested in exotic plants, including gardeners, landscape architects, horticulturalists, botanists, and the curious reader alike.

Download or read book Kingdoms and Domains written by Lynn Margulis and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2009-03-19 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now published by Academic Press and revised from the author's previous Five Kingdoms Third edition, this extraordinary, all inclusive catalogue of the world's living organisms describes the diversity of the major groups, or phyla, of nature's most inclusive taxa. Developed after consultation with specialists, this modern classification scheme is consistent both with the fossil record and with recent molecular, morphological and metabolic data. Generously illustrated, now in full color, Kingdoms and Domains is remarkably easy to read. It accesses the full range of life forms that still inhabit our planet and logically and explicitly classifies them according to their evolutionary relationships. Definitive characteristics of each phylum are professionally described in ways that, unlike most scientific literature, profoundly respect the needs of educators, students and nature lovers. This work is meant to be of interest to all evolutionists as well as to conservationists, ecologists, genomicists, geographers, microbiologists, museum curators, oceanographers, paleontologists and especially nature lovers whether artists, gardeners or environmental activists.Kingdoms and Domains is a unique and indispensable reference for anyone intrigued by a planetary phenomenon: the spectacular diversity of life, both microscopic and macroscopic, as we know it only on Earth today. - New Foreword by Edward O. Wilson - The latest concepts of molecular systematics, symbiogenesis, and the evolutionary importance of microbes - Newly expanded chapter openings that define each kingdom and place its members in context in geological time and ecological space - Definitions of terms in the glossary and throughout the book - Ecostrips, illustrations that place organisms in their most likely environments such as deep sea vents, tropical forests, deserts or hot sulfur springs - A new table that compares features of the most inclusive taxa - Application of a logical, authoritative, inclusive and coherent overall classification scheme based on evolutionary principles
