X-ray microcomputed tomography images and vascular bundle traits of the BZ and MZ tissues. (A) X-ray microcomputed tomography image for the BZ. (B) X-ray microcomputed tomography image for the MZ. (C) The distributions and differences of five traits related to vascular bundles for the BZ and MZ, respectively. TNVB: total number of vascular bundles; ASC: area of the stalk cross section; DVB: density of vascular bundles; ASVB: area of a single vascular bundle; TAVB: total area of vascular bundles. Five samples were used for the BZ and MZ, respectively. * and ** indicate the significance at the 0.05 and 0.01 levels, respectively.
