Morphogenesis and Polarity of Tubular Cells with Tip Growth

  • Chapter
Cytomorphogenesis in Plants

Part of the book series: Cell Biology Monographs ((CELLBIOL,volume 8))

Abstract

Morphogenesis of a plant cell, as treated in this chapter, is, in general, morphogenesis of the cell wall with an emphasis on growth. The reason for this specialized treatment of cell morphogenesis is best explained through an examination of tip growth, the locally restricted enlargement of a cell that usually has a tubulär shape (Frey-Wyssling 1959). Tip growth is associated with polar, local secretion of wall material and represents a conspicuous example of cell polarity. Usually, cells with tip growth show unipolar growth. There are also, however, examples of a bipolar tip growth-phloem (Schoch-Bodmer and Huber 1951) and xylem (Bosshard 1952) fibers. Sometimes there are cells with multipolar growth, i.e., branched systems of coenocytic fungi or algae, stellately armed parenchyma cells, and nonarticulated laticifers. Even the morphogenesis of cells with a complicated shape like the cells of Micrasterias (see p. 147 f.) can be regarded as multipolar growth.

Dedicated to Professor Dr. A. Frey-Wyssling on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
