In plant s, a gland is defined functionally as a plant structure which secretes one or more products. This may be located on or near the plant surface and secrete externally, or be internal to the plant and secrete into a canal or reservoir. Examples include glandular hairs, nectar ies, hydathode s, and the resin canals in Pine Pinus . ref cite web url http botanydictionary.org gland.html title Gland publisher Dictionary of Botany year 2002 ref Notable examples Salt glands of the mangrove The salt glands of mangrove s such as Acanthus , Aegiceras , Aegialitis , and Avicennia are a distinctive multicellular trichome , a glandular hair found on the upper leaf surface and much more densely in the abaxial indumentum. On the upper leaf surface they are sunken in shallow pits, and on the lower surface they occur scattered among long nonglandular hairs composed of three or four cells. Development of the glands resembles that of the nonglandular hairs until the three celled stage, when the short middle stalk cell appears. The salt gland continues to develop to produce two to four vacuolated cells at the level of the epidermis, the stalk cell with an almost completely cutinized wall, and at least eight terminal cells. The terminal cells have a thin, perforated cuticle which separates from the cell walls apically, leaving an enclosed cavity between them. The secreted salt evaporates and forms visible crystals. ref cite book url http books.google.com books?id uwT6SMY oNAC&pg PA123 title The botany of mangroves author P. B.
