Eremanthus erythropappus hosts globoid stem galls induced by Neolasioptera sp. (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) close to the stem apex, which do not compromise the shoot apical meristem (SAM). We hypothesize that maintenance of the SAM, as well as the increasing number of leaves per branch and of galled stem lengths and diameters, are a consequence of alterations in vascular cells and, consequently, in the priority for water flow from non-galled stems to the stem galls. Our study focuses on the globoid stem galls to evaluate if gall induction and development promote changes in structure and function of secondary xylem cells. Anatomical, cytological, histometric and physiological methods were used to analyse non-galled stem branches (NGS), mature globoid stem galls and stem portions below and above the galls. These analyses revealed that vessel elements are larger in stem galls and in stem portions above the galls. Under Neolasioptera sp. induction activity, the vascular cambium of E. erythropappus produces less numerous but larger vessel elements and overproduces parenchyma cells. Contrary to the vascular constriction hypothesis proposed for bacterial galls, the vascular traits of the Neolasioptera sp. stem galls on E. erythropappus result in priority for water flow to galls and the non-galled portions above the galls, allowing the maintenance of galled stem growth and development.
