Talk:Tricolpate

message: Tricolpate could redirect to either Eudicots (for the noun tricolpate which is the singular of tricolpates) or Pollen (for the adjective tricolpate, referring to pollen structure).  Given that the group of plants is named after the anatomical structure, and that the articles should (and currently do) link to each other in suitable places, I don't really see the need for a disambiguation page. I wouldn't really complain about a disambiguation if people want it, but I do think that the right place for discussion of pollen anatomy is Pollen rather than Tricolpate.

thread_title:  External links 

message: Here are some proposed changes I have to add to this article: 
Brief Introduction (Leads Section)
Sieve Elements are central to signaling in plants for important pathways regarding growth and metabolism.  Located in phloem tissue of plants, Sieve tubes are central for transportation of carbohydrates.  Sieve tubes are constituted by connecting ends of sieve elements, and they consist of sieve cells. These Sieve Cells enable this efficient transportation of molecules across Sieve Tubes. 
Sieve Cells
Add information on their structure, molecules that form them to lead into how that relates to function
Sieve Plates
Information will be added on what is transported between the sieve plates, how that contributes to the function of Sieve Tube elements in general
Will delete majority of the information the way it is written in article because citations are not in-text.
Article will be rearranged to talk about the scientist first and then lead into the discovery of Sieve Tube elements
Please let me know if there is any advice or ideas on how to improve.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Manvita12345 (talk • contribs) 22:08, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

message: If anyone has information on the manner in which water passes INTO a leaf or stalk through the epidermis, perhaps this would be a good place to share it. 
As in most descriptions of plant surfaces, this article’s emphasis is on how water is prevented from passing through the plant epidermis.  However, I have encountered many casual references to water entering through the epidermis and being used by the plant.  Actual information on how this is accomplished is not so easy to find!
Bromeliads, of course have trichomes on their leaves to absorb water.  That is easy to understand.  
Cactus in fog deserts are described as not only mist-dripping water to their roots, but as absorbing mist water ‘through their epidermis’.   How?  Some say water enters through cracks in the epidermis.  I have read that stomata are blocked by liquid water on the leaf surface, so something must change if the stomata are accepting water into the plant. Could water vapor alone be adequate?  In BREAZEALE’s tomato plant experiment, mist was used to keep the plants hydrated through their leaves with no water at their roots.  (They also survived with only high humidity.) 
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC437449/pdf/plntphys00261-0049.pdf 
There are many questions about this on the internet and many contradictory answers.  It would be nice if Wikipedia could put together a state-of-the-art answer, even if it’s only ‘Nobody knows for sure but here are the most probable ways.’   Zipzip50 (talk) 02:39, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I have some concern about the origin of the section under 'Development of Pollen Sacs.' It seems as if it may have been coppied from somewhere (the inappropriate citation the person who added the information gave was "pradeeps publications class XII CBSE biology," so presumably the information may come from a textbook or a person's notes), in which case it should be paraphrased and cited - though the information in it should be cited whether or not it is directly coppied - and if it is not paraphrased but instead quoted it should be made sure this source allows this.

Talk:Plant anatomy

message: In an edit of 3 November 2012, IP editor 189.18.201.66 said: There is a different view of morphology and anatomy, in which morphology is not opposed to anatomy, morphology encompasses it, see the article Morphology.  The import of the lead, as I understand it is that while plant anatomy once-upon-a-time included both the external and the internal structure of plants, it is now used exclusively to refer to the internal structure of plants.  Plant morphology also once-upon-a-time used to refer to both the external and the internal structure.  Many authors choose to make a distinction between the two. See, for example, Raven, P. H., R. F. Evert, & S. E. Eichhorn. Biology of Plants, 7th ed., page 9. (New York: W. H. Freeman, 2005), . On the other side of the coin, cellular biologists prefer instead the term plant structure. See, for example, titles like "Boron in plant structure and function", "Elevated CO2 and plant structure: a review" and "The use of an optical brightener in the study of plant structure".  When they use "plant anatomy" or "plant morphology" they generally are talking about more macro structures.  The Plant morphology article has no citations for the use of the term "plant morphology" by cellular biologists as an over-arching term, I suspect that such usage is quite rare.  The first several articles about plant cell structure that I read that used the term "plant morphology" did not use it as an over-arching term, but in conformity with the the above distinction.

Talk:Cluster root

message: I have moved this article from Proteoid root to cluster root. Proteoid roots is the original name, because at first these roots were thought to occur only in Proteaceae. They were subsequently found in a number of other families, making Proteoid roots a misnomer. Cluster roots was proposed, but adoption was fairly slow at first. An analysis of papers reported by Google Scholar shows preference for "cluster roots" has increased by over 3% a year for the last decade. It has been the preferred term since 2005, and is now favoured by about a factor of two. Hesperian 01:43, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I have moved this text added with this edit
:This was a very useful weapon, because the mace could penetrate most armor easily. Counter-cavalry units used the roundhead, because it was very light compared to axes or lances  but was strong enough to crack the bone of the horse and penetrate the armor of the rider. However, this weapon was of little use against swordsmen, because it had a much shorter reach. Soldiers with roundheads were usually placed around archers, who could be easily killed by horsemen.
From the article page because there are several inconsistences with and the text does not cite its sources:
*  Encyclopaedia Britannica Eleventh Edition says it was an English Civil War weapon. In that war guns not archers were used.
* As the EB says it had a head about nine inches long, a staff two yards long, this is a lot longer than a sword's reach.
