Reduction in vascular tissue, mechanical tissue and cuticle is characteristic of:
mesophytes
epiphytes
hydrophytes
Xerophytes
Roots of Hydrophytes -
In hydrophytes, root hairs are absent because they absorb water through general body surface. Secondary growth or lateral roots originate from this zone.
-
In hydrophytes, vascular tissue and mechanical tissue are reduced. The cuticle is either completely absent or if present, it is thin and poorly developed.
