In plants, ground tissue bounded by the epidermis and vascular tissue in stems and roots; in animals, outer layer of an organ, such as the cortex of the kidney or adrenal gland.

Vascular Cylinder

The central part of a plant's root system that contains the plant's vascular tissue, including xylem and phloem, for water and nutrient transport.

Casparian Strip

A band of cell wall material in the roots of plants that is impervious to water and solutes, controlling the flow into the vascular system.
