The Tissue System
Introduction to Tissue System, Types
and Characteristics of tissue System
As you
have learnt, the plant cells are organised into tissues, in turn the tissues
are organised into organs. Different organs in a plant show differences in their
internal structure. This part of chapter deals with the different type of
internal structure of various plant organs and its adaptations to diverse
environments.
A group
of tissues performing a similar function, irrespective of its position in the
plant body, is called a tissue system. In 1875, German Scientist Julius von
Sachs recognized three tissue systems in the plants. They are:
1.
Epidermal tissue system (derived from protoderm)
2.
Ground tissue system (derived from ground meristem)
3.
Vascular tissue system (derived from procambium)
