The development of the branch-stem-attachment of Dracaena marginata was analyzed to clarify how a load-adapted arrangement of mechanically relevant tissues, i.e. the vascular bundles with fiber caps, is established during ontogeny. For this purpose, 3D images of four intact and developing buds of D. marginata were repetitively acquired in vivo within the time span of 180 days using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging, as this method allows for non-invasive and non-destructive image acquis ...[more]
