Spatholobus parvifloru (DC.) Kuntze. is a tropical woody climber which shows abnormal secondary growth in thickness, due to the formation and activity of successive cambia. By the dedifferentiation of groups of parenchyma cells outside the band of sclereid fibers, the cambial rings are formed. The sclereid band is formed between the primary bark fibers. Each successive cambium first produces a layer of sclereid fibers which separate the vascular tissue produced by cambial activity. The epidermis is replaced by the periderm. This periderm helps the vessel segments to remain undamaged when the woody stem twist around the support.Keywords
