'''axial cell (PO:0000081):''' A vascular cell derived from the fusiform cambial initial and oriented with its longest diameter parallel with the main axis of stem or root. [source: ISBN:0471245208]
 
 
 
Comment: These cells make up the axial system, also known as vertical or longitudinal system.

The term axial cell, and the current definition, describe a particular type of vascular cells found in wood. This is not appropriate as the parent for xylem and phloem cells. Also, the term axial cell is not widely used. "Axial system" is widely used to describe the vascular tissue in wood (in contrast to the radial system).
 
 
 
Suggest that we obsolete this term, possibly replace with new terms for axial system and radial system
 
 
 
 
 
At the bryophyte term meeting on 4-25-2011 (RW and MAG present), we decided that axial cell was not the correct term to use to describe all of the elongated cells associated with conducting tissue in plants. They are different cell types and have different origins, so they should not all be grouped together.
 
 
 
 
 
===New proposed hierarchy (children of plant cell):===
