A laticifer is a type of elongated secretory cell found in the leaves and/or stems of plants that produce latex and rubber as secondary metabolites. Laticifers may be divided into:

• Articulated laticifers, i.e., composed of a series of cells joined together, or
• Non-articulated laticifers, consisting of one long coenocytic cell.
