Abstract

Wood, or secondary xylem, is a water-conductive and supportive vascular tissue highly characteristic of trees. In addition to parenchymatous cells adapted for storage and transport functions, wood is mainly composed of various vertically elongated cell types. These are classified either as tracheary
