•  Reaction wood

  Reaction wood forms when part of a woody plant is subjected to mechanical stress, and helps to bring parts of the plant into an optimal position. This stress may be the result of wind exposure, excess of snow, soil movement, etc. The reaction wood is not externally visible, although asymmetric growth is a reliable indicator. The cambium in the affected part of the trunk is more active on one side, leading to thicker growth rings.
