...Gladiolus, crocus, freesia, babiana, etc. (3)Tuber: An underground stem that stores nutrients and thickens into a lump. Cyclamen, caladium, gloxinia, anemone, etc. ... From [Rhizome]… In most cases, underground stems are found just below ground level, but in some cases, such as horsetail and lotus, they run horizontally underground at a great depth, and in these cases, air spaces are well developed. Based on their shape, horizontally crawling stems are called rhizomes, globular or globular stems are called tubers and corms, and those with scaly leaves are called bulbs. The underground stems of ferns such as bracken and Japanese white ferns are typical rhizomes, creeping long underground and branching, but there are also rhizomes that grow obliquely or are short and erect. … From [Root]…The roots have relatively well-developed parenchyma tissue, and starch is often stored in the cells. Storage roots are those that store nutrients abnormally well. In Brassicaceae, the hypocotyl and taproot base are well developed, and in sweet potatoes, the roots (tuber) themselves are enlarged. Roots that emerge above ground are called aerial roots, and some of them function to provide ventilation. *Some of the terminology that mentions "tuber" is listed below.
