Histogen theory is applicable for
Root apex only
Shoot apex only
Both of these
None of these.

Application of Histogen Theory -
Histogen Theory is applicable for root apex only, not for shoot apex. Because, in higher plants, shoot apex have four different histogen in monocotyledons. The fourth layer is called calyptrogen.
- wherein
Root cap is produced by calyptrogen in monocots. Root cap is produced by dermatogen in dicots. One histogen is present in ranunculus, two histogens occurs in casuarina.
