Plant Growth Size & shape depends on cell # & cell size Decide which way to divide & which way to elongate Periclinal = perpendicular to surface: get longer Anticlinal = parallel to surface: add more layers Now must decide which way to elongate: which walls to stretch
3
Plant Cell Walls and Growth
Carbohydrate barrier surrounding cell Protects & gives cell shape 1˚ wall made first mainly cellulose Can stretch! 2˚ wall made after growth stops Lignins make it tough
4
Plant Cell Walls and Growth
Cellulose: ordered chains made of glucose linked b 1-4 Cross-link with neighbors to form strong, stable fibers Made by enzyme embedded in the plasma membrane Guided by cytoskeleton Cells with poisoned µtubules are misshapen Other wall chemicals are made in Golgi & secreted Only cellulose pattern is tightly controlled
5
Plant Cell Walls and Growth
Cellulose pattern is tightly controlled 6 CES enzymes form a “rosette”: each makes 6 chains Rosettes are guided by microtubules Deposition pattern determines direction of elongation

Plant Cell Walls and Growth
New fibers are perpendicular to growth direction, yet fibers form a mesh Multinet hypothesis: fibers reorient as cell elongates Old fibers are anchored so gradually shift as cell grows
