title: Vessel element
text: A vessel element or vessel member is one of the cell types found in xylem, the water conducting tissue of plants. Vessel elements are found in most angiosperms and in some gymnosperms such as cycads and Ephedra, but absent in conifers. Vessel elements are the main feature distinguishing the "hardwood" of angiosperms from the "softwood" of conifers.
