As a result of this merger, an elongated tubelike structure of considerable length and highly suitable for the longitudinal translocation of water is created.  One type, called scalariform, consists of a number of parallel openings (Figs.  In diffuse­ Figure 21 End of a vessel element with a scalariform perforation plate. Note the large number of intervessel bordered pits on the vessel element wall. ) Page 34 Figure 22 View of vessel elements and connecting simple perforation plate.  In either case, free liquid flow between vessel elements is established through perforation plates.

Any subsequent process involving the penetration of liquids is obviously more difficult to perform after the wood is dried due to the reduction of liquid flow pathways resulting from pit aspiration.  Micrometer bar 1 mm. ), ACS Symposium Series 43, 1977.  The rather thick and nonperforated pit membrane precludes free liquid flow between ray parenchyma and longitudinal tracheids.  Readers interested in this topic should see Panshin and deZeeuw (4) or Phillips (7), or both.
