Abstract

The purpose of this investigation of xylem maturation was to determine the relationship, if any, between the type of secondary-wall thickening and the order of differentiation; also, to ascertain the influence of the rate of elongation of the plant as a whole, more specifically of individual xylem cells, upon the order of deposition and type of secondary walls.
