For example, formation of meristems-interfascicular ombium and cork cambium from fully differentiated parenchyma cells. vilile doing so, such meristems/tissues are able to divide and produce clls that once again lose the capacity to divide but mature to perform specific functions, i.e., get redifferentiated. List some of the tissues in a rody dicotyledenous plant that are the products of redifferentiation. How would you describe a tumour? What would you call the parenchyma vels that are made to divide under controlled laboratory conditions during pant tissue culture? Recall, in Section 15.1.1, we have mentioned that the growth in plants sopen, i.e., it can be indeterminate or determinate. Now, we may say that ken differentiation in plants is open, because cells/tissues arising out of the same meristem have different structures at maturity. The final structure at maturity of a cell/tissue is also determined by the location of the cell within. For example, cells positioned away from root apical Ieristems differentiate as root-cap cells, while those pushed to the kriphery mature as epidermis. Can you add a few more examples of open differentiation correlating the position of a cell to its position in an organ?
