Summary[edit]

Description

cross section: Ficus leaf magnification: 400x

Embedded in the mesophyll are vascular bundles of varying sizes. The bundles are closed, collateral and wrapped in clear parenchymatous bundle sheaths. Xylem occurs to the upper or adaxial surface and phloem to the lower or abaxial surface. 

In larger vascular bundles patches of supported sclerenchyma occur above the xylem and below the phloem. Abundant dark staining lactifers produce latex like substances.
Vascular bundles of the petiole and midvein are leptocentric with a ring of xylem surrounding central phloem.
