Definition
A tracheary element (PO:0000290) that has no perforations in its cell wall. Source: ISBN:0471245208
Comment
May have any of the kinds of secondary wall thickenings found in tracheary elements. The area of contact between two tracheids has only bordered pits, whereas in vessel members (PO:0002003), it has openings in the cell wall called perforations, organized into perforation plates (term has been requested in GO).
