#vascular_tissue tissue that conducts water and nutrients through the plant body in higher plants
supertype: plant_tissue__planttissue the tissue of a plant
part of: vascular_system
subtype: stele the usually cylindrical central vascular portion of the axis of a vascular plant
subtype: cambium.vascular_tissue formative one-cell-thick layer of tissue between xylem and phloem in most vascular plants that is responsible for secondary growth
subtype: vascular_bundle__vascular_strand__fibrovascular_bundle__fibrovascularbundle a unit strand of the vascular system in stems and leaves of higher plants consisting essentially of xylem and phloem
subtype: vascular_ray__medullary_ray__medullaryray a sheet of vascular tissue separating the vascular bundles
subtype: xylem the woody part of plants: the supporting and water-conducting tissue, consisting primarily of tracheids and vessels
subtype: tracheid long tubular cell peculiar to xylem
subtype: phloem__bast (botany) tissue that conducts synthesized food substances (e.g., from leaves) to parts where needed; consists primarily of sieve tubes
subtype: sieve_tube__sievetube tube formed by cells joined end-to-end through which nutrients flow in flowering plants and brown algae
