Summary Introduction
Introduction: Xylem is the vascular tissue of the plant that helps in transferring water and, the dissolved minerals from the roots to other plant parts. It also helps in providing physical support to the plant. The formation of xylem initiates when, there is the formation of the primary xylem. In woody plants, the secondary xylem is formed around the tissues of the primary xylem.
