Preferred name	portion of meristem tissue
Synonyms	meristem meristematic tissue
Definitions	Meristem is a plant component consisting of undifferentiated plant issue - the botanical equivalent of animal stem cells. A formative plant tissue usually made up of small cells capable of dividing indefinitely and giving rise to similar cells or to cells that differentiate to produce the definitive tissues and organs. A portion of plant tissue (PO:0009007) in which plant cells (PO:0009002) have retained their embryonic characteristics, or have reverted to them secondarily, and that divide to produce new cells that can undergo differentiation to form mature tissues, i.e. they have a capacity for morphogenesis and growth.
