Abstract
The structure and organization of the shoot and root apical meristems is presented. Their functional zones and mechanism of functioning are described. The shoot apical meristem is presented as a dynamic structure that changes during leaf and stem formation. The generation of primary roots from the primary (apical) root meristem and of secondary roots from the secondary root meristems is described and schematically presented. Finally, similarities of plant stem cells in different types of meristems, at the molecular level, are presented.
