  1. Cellulose fibrils direct plant organ movements.

    Faraday Discuss (2008) PMID 19049001

    We study a simple mechanical model for the cell wall which--in contrast to earlier models--considers extensible cellulose fibrils in an isotropically swelling matrix. Depending on the detailed architecture of the cellulose fibrils, the model predicts that swelling may lead either to significant comp...
  2. Tensile and compressive stresses in tracheids are induced by swelling based on geometrical constraints of the wood cell.

    Planta 226(4):981-7 (2007) PMID 17554550

    We demonstrate with two tissue types of the secondary xylem of conifers (normal wood and compression wood of spruce (Picea abies)) that either tensile or compressive stresses can develop in the longitudinal direction during the swelling of the cell wall. This dramatic difference appears to be due mo...
  3. The role of wheat awns in the seed dispersal unit.

    Science 316(5826):884-6 (2007) PMID 17495170

    We discovered that the awns are also able to propel the seeds on and into the ground. The arrangement of cellulose fibrils causes bending of the awns with changes in humidity. Silicified hairs that cover the awns allow propulsion of the unit only in the direction of the seeds. This suggests that the...
