Classification
Primary phloem- from procambium
External phloem or abaxial phloem – external to the xylem
Internal phloem or adaxial phloem – internal to the xylem
initiated later than the external
Secondary phloem – from the vascular cambium

Elements of the phloem
1. Sieve elements
A. Sieve cells less specialized sieve elements
B. Sieve-tube member/ sieve-tube elements more specialized sieve elements longitudinal series of members form the sieve tube
![Page 10: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Elements of the phloem
Sieve cell –an element with: a. relatively unspecialized sieve areas b. long and slender c. taper at their ends or have steeply inclined end
walls
Sieve tube members - sieve elements with: a. sieve plates mainly on end walls b. the walls of laterally adjacent sieve tubes bear
sieve areas of lower degree of specialization
![Page 11: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Elements of the phloem
Sieve cell and sieve tube members Differ in the degree of differentiation of their sieve
areas Differ in the distribution of these areas on the walls
Sieve areas and sieve plates A sieve area appears like a depression in a wall
with a number of dots- the transection of the pore content each surrounded by a ring of callose
![Page 13: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Elements of the phloem
Sieve areas and sieve plates
Sieve plates – wall areas bearing the highly specialized sieve areas; commonly on the end walls
1. simple sieve plate – consists of a single sieve area
2. compound sieve plate – with many sieve areas arranged in reticulate, scalariform and any other manner
![Page 14: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Elements of the phloem
Development of sieve plate
1. The future pore site is at first occupied by a single plasmodesma.
2. Sheets of ER and platelets of callose become localized on opposing surfaces of each pore site with the ectoplast interposed between ER and the callose
3. The sheets and platelets increase in diameter until they become as wide as the future pores.
![Page 18: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Elements of the phloem
Development of sieve plate
4. Eventually, the 2 opposing platelets at each pore site fuse because of the disappearance of the original separating wall
5. A hole appears in the middle of the fused platelets and enlarges centrifugally.

Phylogenetic specialization in sieve tube elements
Lower vascular plants and gymnosperms generally have sieve cells
angiosperms have sieve-tube members
Trends of specialization: 1. Progressive localization of highly specialized sieve
areas on the end walls
![Page 25: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Phylogenetic specialization in sieve tube elements
Trends of specialization: 2. A gradual change in the orientation of these end
walls from very oblique to transverse
3. A step-wise change from compound to simple sieve plates
4. A progressive decrease in conspicuousness of the sieve areas on the side walls
5. An increase in the percent of transverse area occupied by the sieve-area strands appears to have occurred
![Page 26: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Differentiation of sieve tube member
Enucleate at functional maturity Nucleolus is extruded Tonoplast disappears in mature sieve tube elements ER may break up into vesicles Mitochondria become devoid of internal membranes Dictyosomes disappear completely Center of the cell is filled with the mixture of vacuolar
sap and disorganized cytoplasmic matter, chiefly slime
![Page 28: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Elements of the phloem
2. Companion cells
Arise from the same meristematic cell as the associated sieve-tube member
Retain its nucleus at maturity
frequently lacking in the earliest part of the primary phloem (protophloem)
Sieve cells of gymnosperms and lower vascular plants without companion cells; they have albuminous cells
3. Fibers
![Page 31: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Elements of the phloem
4. Parenchyma cells
10 phloem parenchyma – from the procambium Storage of starch, fat and other organic food
materials
20 phloem parenchyma axial phloem parenchyma –from fusiform initials
fusiform parenchyma cells – long parenchyma cell
parenchyma strand – a series of short cells
![Page 32: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Elements of the phloem
20 phloem parenchyma ray parenchyma – from ray initials
procumbent ray cells – elongated in the radial direction
Upright or erect ray- vertically elongated
in active phloem – the parenchyma are unlignified In inactive phloem- may remain unchanged or may
become sclerified phellogen may develop from phloem parenchyma
and ray parenchyma
![Page 33: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Primary phloem
Protophloem conducting tissue of the
actively growing parts of the plant
functions for a brief period only
components that remain after obliteration of the sieve elements differentiate into fibers
![Page 34: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Primary phloem
Metaphloem
matures after the growth in length of the surrounding tissue is completed; retained longer than the protophloem
companion cells and phloem parenchyma are typically present in dicots
in monocots sieve tube elements and companion cells form strands containing no phloem parenchyma
![Page 35: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Primary phloem
Metaphloem
fibers if present in dicots originate in the protophloem not metaphloem; old metaphloem may become strongly sclerified
in monocots, sclerenchyma encloses the bundle as sheaths and may be present in the metaphloem
![Page 36: Lesson 11 bio101 (c)Dr. Evangelista](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55897cfcd8b42a7e758b45a4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Secondary phloem
Have 5 components
Axial system Sieve tube elements Companion cells Axial parenchyma Phloem fibers
Radial system Phloem ray
