incumbent 1 |
= notorhizal |
arrangement |
cotyledons |
Adaxially contiguous and together oppositely parallel to the hypocotyl and radicle, the abaxial surface of one lying against them. |
|
paired |
= conjugate, geminate |
arrangement |
|
Inserted by pairs, the members of each fused or not. |
|
V-form |
|
arrangement |
bundle scars |
Disposed in an open-ended triangular pattern, like the letter V. |
|
alternate 1 |
|
arrangement |
|
Inserted singly along the axis, each at a different level and each diverging on a different radius than the ones next above and below. |
|
scalariform |
= ladder-like |
arrangement |
|
Disposed in vertical sequence with long axes horizontal and parallel. |
|
pseudomonadal |
|
arrangement |
pollen |
Apparently monadal but each grain actually comprising an unseparated original tetrad in which the contiguous walls between component grains have dissolved. |
|
fascicled 2 |
= bundled (not recommended), fasciculate |
arrangement |
|
Disposed in one or more fascicles, the members of each inserted close together and only slightly if at all divergent from one another. |
|
alternate 2 |
|
arrangement |
structures in multiple whorls |
Having those of each whorl staggered radially in relation to those of the adjacent whorl(s). |
|
bundled 2 (not recommended) |
= fascicled, fasciculate |
arrangement |
|
Disposed in one or more fascicles, the members of each inserted close together and only slightly if at all divergent from one another. |
|
conjugate |
= geminate, paired |
arrangement |
|
Inserted by pairs, the members of each fused or not. |
|
decussate |
|
arrangement |
|
Opposite with successive pairs radially oriented at right angles to one another, thus polystichous with four equidistant ranks. |
|
verticillate |
= cyclic, seriate, whorled |
arrangement |
|
Disposed along the axis in groups of three or more, the members of each group (cycle, series, verticil, whorl) inserted regularly around the axis at the same level. |
|
…ranked |
= …stichous |
arrangement |
|
Disposed along the axis in the number of distinct ranks indicated by the prefix; as in two-ranked. |
|
acyclic |
= helical, spiral |
arrangement |
|
Disposed helically about and along the axis, each on a different radius than the one(s) vertically adjacent. |
|
stellate 1 |
= radiant, radiate |
arrangement |
|
Disposed about and mutually divergent from a common geometric center in two or three dimensions, thus collectively actinomorphic. |
|
…verticillate |
= …cyclic, …seriate, …whorled |
arrangement |
|
Disposed in the number of verticils (cycles, series, whorls) indicated by the prefix; as in five-whorled, 3-whorled. |
|
…angular 1 |
|
arrangement |
bundle scars |
Forming a figure with the number of sides indicated by the prefix. |
|
fasciculate 2 |
= bundled (not recommended), fascicled |
arrangement |
|
Disposed in one or more fascicles, the members of each inserted close together and only slightly if at all divergent from one another. |
|
seriate |
= cyclic, verticillate, whorled |
arrangement |
|
Disposed along the axis in groups of three or more, the members of each group (cycle, series, verticil, whorl) inserted around the axis at the same level. |
|
fastigiate |
|
arrangement |
branches |
Closely parallel to one another and to the axis of origin over most of their lengths. |
|
muriform |
= brickwork-like |
arrangement |
cells |
Disposed like bricks in a wall; in parallel rows, the members in each row overlapping the boundaries between members of the adjacent rows. |
|
duplicate 1 |
= conduplicate |
arrangement |
cotyledons |
Adaxially contiguous, folded sharply together longitudinally (one adaxially, one abaxially), and reflexed together, one enveloping the hypocotyl and radicle, the other enveloping the first. |
|
distant |
= remote |
arrangement |
|
Disposed relatively far from one another along the axis. |
|
helical 1 |
= acyclic, spiral |
arrangement |
|
Disposed helically about and along the axis, each on a different radius than the one(s) vertically adjacent. |
|
linear 1 |
|
arrangement |
bundle scars |
Disposed in a more or less straight line. |
