First sentence: Ever since Bohumil Nemec, nearly a hundred years ago, observed a group of non-dividing cells at the summit of the proximal meristem of roots of Allium cepa, Rorippa amphibia and Iris germanica (Nemec, 1897), similar observations have been made on numerous other species of angiosperms and gymnosperms.
