A strobilus (pl.: strobili) is a structure present on many land plant species consisting of sporangia -bearing structures densely aggregated along a stem. Strobili are often called cones, but some botanists restrict the use of the term cone to the woody seed strobili of conifers.

A conifer cone, or in formal botanical usage a strobilus, pl.: strobili, is a seed-bearing organ on gymnosperm plants, especially in conifers and cycads. They are usually woody and variously conic, cylindrical, ovoid, to globular, and have scales and bracts arranged around a central axis, but can be fleshy and berry -like.

The meaning of STROBILUS is an aggregation of sporophylls resembling a cone (as in the club mosses and horsetails).

Wide variations in the female (megasporangiate) reproductive structures among the conifers are the main basis for their classification. Most living conifers have a seed cone that is interpreted as a compound strobilus; each cone scale, inserted in the axil of a bract, is equivalent to an entire simple pollen cone.

strobilus: cone-shaped mass of ovule- or spore-bearing scales or bracts; reproductive structure of conifers. Some seed-producing plants do not have flowers and fruit.

Strobilus In subject area: Agricultural and Biological Sciences Early pollen cones (microsporangiate strobili) were simple structures consisting of an axis with modified leaves (microsporophylls) that bore microsporangia.

A strobilus (plural strobili) is an organ of many plants that contains the reproductive structures. Strobili are ordinarily called cones in many of these groups. Strobili are characterized by a central axis (anatomically a stem) surrounded by…

2007年10月18日 · In Poland, juniper bushes 12–14 years old (hence 6–8 years after commencing reproduction) began to show clear year-to-year differences in intensity of strobilus production (Faliński 1998).

Strobilus is a botanical term that refers to a cone-like structure consisting of bracts, scales or sporophylls. It is most commonly found in gymnosperms, such
