2. Feb. 2023 · The leaf veins are small channels or capillaries that transport water and minerals to and from the leaf of a plant. They are vascular tissues composed of xylem and phloem cells embedded mainly in the parenchyma and sometimes sclerenchyma cells. The outer layer of veins is made of bundle sheath cells. Leaf Veins.
18. Apr. 2013 · Leaf vein traits have shown repeated evolutionary trajectories across major plant groups and have probably influenced climate and shifts of dominance in world vegetation. Leaf vein traits have numerous and increasing applications across a wide range of activities.

Leaves may also have a palmate venation where several veins radiate from the point where the petiole attaches to the blade. Ginkgo tree leaves have palmate venation. The veins fork, then travel a bit, then fork again, travel, fork, and so on until the veins reach the margin (edge) of the leaf. Sugar maple leaves have a classic palmate venation ...
Vascular Bundles (Veins) Like the stem, the leaf contains vascular bundles composed of xylem and phloem (Figure \(\PageIndex{6-7}\)). When a typical stem vascular bundle (which has xylem internal to the phloem) enters the leaf, xylem usually faces upwards, whereas phloem faces downwards. The conducting cells of the xylem (tracheids and vessel ...
18. Apr. 2013 · We describe the development and plasticity of leaf venation and its adaptation across environments globally, and a new global data compilation indicating trends relating vein length per unit area to climate, growth form and habitat worldwide. We synthesize the evolution of vein traits in the major plant lineages throughout ...

The leaf blade is (usually) the flat, photosynthetic part of the blade. In eudicots, the leaf will have a central midvein (also called the midrib), with smaller veins branching off from there. This type of vein organization is called netted venation. The edge of the blade is the margin.
15. Mai 2012 · Leaf veins provide mechanical support to display the leaf towards light, and contain the xylem that transports nutrients and water for photosynthesis and transpiration, and the phloem that...
