lignified

Highly lignified wood is durable and therefore a good raw material for many applications.

Growing to height also employed another trait of tracheids - the support offered by their lignified walls.

Below the wings, the peranth forms a thick and lignified tube with a widened base.

The viable embryos germinate within three to four days after partial removal of the lignified seed coats.

The thick wall, as well as the original wall in which the Casparian strip is located, may become lignified.

But all that remained of Rose of Jericho was a lignified smile, cast forever in bark.

Xylem cells are elongated cells with lignified secondary thickening of the cell walls.

All tracheary elements develop a thick lignified cell wall, and at maturity the protoplast has broken down and disappeared.

Sclerenchyma (cells with lignified secondary walls that lose their protoplasm at maturity, i.e. are 'dead')

At maturity, the dehiscence zone is effectively a non-lignified layer between two regions of lignified cells in the valve and the replum.

Grown as a source of green manure, fodder and the lignified fiber obtained from its stem, it bears yellow flowers and elongate, alternate leaves.

In older endodermal cells, suberin may be more extensively deposited on all cell wall surfaces and the cells can become lignified, forming a complete waterproof layer.

It is composed mostly of dead lignified cells and is produced by the formation of multiple layers of periderm, cortical and phloem tissue.

The outer bark is about 6 mm thick with alternating tiered layers of pale yellowish brown corky bark, and brown lignified fibrous bark.

The greater glider can digest low nutrient foliage, specifically eucalypt leaf matter, which contains a variety of phenolic and terpenoid compounds and a high concentration of lignified fibre.

The leaf anatomy of Halothamnus beckettii is unique in this genus: the peripheral bundles at the inside of the layer of Kranz-cells contain extreme amounts of lignified tissue.

In particular, they did not have tracheids: elongated cells that aid in the transport of water and mineral salts and which develop a thick lignified wall at maturity, thus providing mechanical strength.

Lignified fibers, lacking resiliency, confer brittleness on pliant rubbery algal tissues, and lignified algae anchored along rocky coastlines may well have disintegrated under wave impact.

The testa is 0.2-0.3 mm thick, with all its cell walls somewhat lignified, some of them with distinct thickening; its tegmen consists of an outer fibrous, lignified layer four to ten cells thick, with a lignified endotegmen composed of contiguous cuboid cells, with strongly thickened radial walls.
