Question
Injections of oxy·tetra·cycline HCl (“H-C-L”) protect these plants from being affected by phytoplasma-induced (“FYE-toh-plaz-muh”) lethal yellowing. The unwanted development of “inverted root cones” by these plants is often caused by the shallow planting of its root initiation zone. These plants’ apical growth only occurs at a meristem-rich core above the crownshaft called the “heart.” They’re not ferns, but dried-out tissue left over after these plants have shedded their leaf-like structures is often retooled as (*) pseudobark. Since these trees cannot form cambium, they are the only trees not to display growth rings. A species of these trees endemic to the Seychelles (“say-SHELZ”) is responsible for generating the largest plant seeds. For 10 points, name these fronded tropical trees noted for their production of dates and coconuts. ■END■
