The tunica corpus concept was given by Schmidt (1924) which was based on plane of divisions
of cells. According to this concept there are two portions in shoot apex-tunica and corpus. The tunica shows only anti-clinical divisions and thus it is responsible for surface growth. The corpus shows divisions in all plane and thus responsible for volume growth.
