| 1 | The secondary phloem consisted of sieve cells and phloem parenchymas. | |
| 2 | In vascular plants, the xylem and phloem serve to translocate such substances. | |
| 3 | Cortex (pl. cortices or cortexes) A primary tissue in roots and stems of vascular plants derived from the corpus meristem, that extends inwards from the epidermis to the phloem. | |
| 4 | Result The active component content in phloem was the highest, while, successively, in pith and in xylem. | |
| 5 | Results: The microscopical characteristics such phellem, cortex, phloem and xylem were observed in the transverse section of the stem. |
