Aerial stem modifications are modifications to the aerial stems,[1] vegetative buds and floral buds of plants growing in different conditions and which perform functions such as climbing, protection, support, synthesis of food, or vegetative propagation.[2][3] Aerial stem structures that undergo modifications to perform these special functions include tendrils, thorns, hooks, phylloclade, tuberous stems, and bulbils.[4][5] [6]The auxiliary or the terminal part of the modified structures shows their stem nature.[7]
