Interaction of Cell-Wall Formation and Cell Division in Higher Plant Cells

  • Chapter
Cellulose and Other Natural Polymer Systems

Abstract

In the typical process of cell division in higher plant cells, there is a rather strict coupling of the sequence of nuclear division and cell-wall formation processes.
