| The inner sheath, termed the sclerenchymatous bundle or mestome sheath, is colourless and contains thickened walls and extensive suberin lamella. |
| Hence, wall preparations used for analyses still contained the walls of rhizodermal, exodermal, and sclerenchymatous cells. |
| A conspicuous anatomical feature associated with pepper fruit ripening was the development of a plate of sclerenchymatous tissue in the separation zone. |
| Outside this series of bundles lies a sclerenchymatous band which is wavy, following the lower edges of the large air-cavities. |
| Just inside the sclerenchymatous ring lies a series of bundles which are connected with it. |
| The sclerenchymatous ring though present is very narrow and not very conspicuous. |
