The single root that develops from the seed (or from the base of a stem, in the case of ferns) is called the primary root. In some species, the primary root thickens and becomes the principal root of the plant. This kind of root system (found, for example, in carrot plants) is known as a taproot system. Tuberous roots bear clusters of tubers (thickened storage organs) that contain buds or eyes from which new plants grow. This type of root system is found in the dahlia and ranunculus buttercup.
