The outermost protective layer of cells in plants, often covered by a waxy cuticle to prevent water loss. FYI: In roots, the epidermis contains specialized extensions called root hairs for water absorption. The tissue layer in plant stems and roots located between the epidermis and the vascular cylinder, primarily used for storage. FYI: In many plants, the innermost layer of the cortex is the endodermis, which contains the Casparian strip. The innermost layer of the cortex surrounding the vascular cylinder (stele). It regulates the movement of water and solutes into the vascular tissues. FYI: The endodermis contains the Casparian strips, waxy bands that force water to pass through the cell cytoplasm, making the plant apoplastic pathway difficult. A layer of meristematic cells located immediately internal to the endodermis. It is responsible for initiating the growth of lateral roots. FYI: The pericycle is the site from which most lateral roots originate, making it vital for root system development.
