What is The Fine Structure of the Collenchyma Cell Wall about?
An investigation of the fine structure of the cell wall was carried out on representative species of four morphological forms of collenchyma, viz. annular, angular, plate and lacunato. In all forms lamellae were observed in which the orientation of cellulose microfibrils was transverse. These lamellae alternated throughout the thickness of the wall with lamellae in which the orientation of cellulose microfibrils was longitudinal. The distribution of pectic substances within the wall, when stained with ruthenium red and by the alkaline hydroxylamine-ferric chloride method of Reeve (1958), was generally not observed in lamellate form although instances of lamellae with high pectic content were observed. \* The author would like to express appreciation and gratitude to Prof. A. B. Wardrop under whose direction this research was conducted and who provided numerous helpful ideas and criticisms both during the experimental work and in the compilation of the manuscript. Thanks are conveyed as well to Mr. F. J. Daniels and Mr. G.M.
