Cambium





A cambium (plural cambia or cambiums), in botany, is a tissue layer that provides partially undifferentiated cells for plant growth. It forms parallel rows of cells, which result in secondary tissues.[1]


There are several distinct kinds of cambium found in plant stems and roots:




  • Cork cambium, a tissue found in many vascular plants as part of the periderm.


  • Unifacial cambium, which ultimately produces cells to the interior of its cylinder.


  • Vascular cambium, a lateral meristem in the vascular tissue of plants.
