| Abstract | Secondary phloem anatomy of several species of Cycadeoidea is described from trunks in the Wieland Collection, Peabody Museum of Natural History. The trunks were collected from the Lakota Formation, Lower Cretaceous, Black Hills of South Dakota. Secondary phloem is extensively developed and consists of alternating, tangential bands of fibers and sieve elements, with rare phloem parenchyma. Uniseriate rays, 2-22 cells high, occur between every one to three files of the axial system. Fibers are long, more than 1200 µm, approximately 26.6-34.2 µm in diameter, and have slit-like apertures on the lateral walls. Sieve elements range from 16-25 µm in diameter and are up to 500 µm long. Elliptical sieve areas appear on both end and radial walls and measure 10 µm across; minute spots, which may represent sieve pores, are present within the sieve areas. Secondary phloem of North American Cycadeoidea is similar in organization (alternating tangential bands) and cell types (sieve cells, fibers, axial parenchyma) to that known in other extant and fossil cycadophytes and some seed ferns. The unusual pattern of cell types and thickness of secondary phloem is discussed in the context of plant habit, phloem efficiency, and potential phylogenetic importance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
