PY -1980 DA -0000-00-00 JO -Taiwania VL -25 IS -1 SP -48 EP -56 UR -https://taiwania.ntu.edu.tw/abstract/624 AB -The pressence of casparian strips on cork cells, and the structure and the development of the lattice-work phellem are described. Three to four subsequent periderms are formed during a growing season in the young branch. Most of these are parallel to each other. Each periderm is composed of layers radially elongated thin-wall non-suberized 'cork ray cell', alternating radially with a flattened casparian strip bearing suberized cells. The significance of the casparian strip in the cork of the stem is also described. DO -10.6165/tai.1980.25.48
