Taraxacum is a large genus in the Asteraceae family. It is characterized by a thick tap root and leaves radiating from the root to form a rosette. This plant is highly common and is found in fields, in pastures, meadows and is frequently considered as a troublesome weed.<br \/>Dandelion is known for the nutritional and culinary qualities of the leaves and for medicinal properties of the roots. In addition, it shows a very particular and interesting characteristic. When a stem is broken a milky, thick liquid is flowing from the wound. This liquid called latex, can be turned in rubber. It quickly coagulates after being exposed to air into a rubber that can be used to fabricate tires.<\/p><p style=\"margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; line-height: 25.2px; color: #404040; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">Below light microscopy cross with periderm, protective tissue, xylem in the center (cylinder of xylem II) and initiation of a lateral root (red arrow) in front of xylem.<\/p><p style=\"margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; line-height: 25.2px; color: #404040; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px; border-style: initial; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unige.ch\/sciences\/biologie\/bioveg\/crevecoeur\/files\/cache\/2053e08203cdf951149360a16151e993_f735.jpg\" alt=\"Site Racine Taraxacumge1\" width=\"650\" height=\"513\" \/><\/p><p style=\"margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; line-height: 25.2px; color: #404040; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">Higher magnification view of the cross section illustrating the phloem and the laticifers (red arrows).
