Abstract
The cell wall is one of the main subjects in cytological research on plants because its formation involves a large apparatus of cellular synthesis and transport mechanisms, the detailed knowledge of which is necessary to understand the plant cell. There are still many details not fully understood especially concerning (1) the molecular structure of certain polysaccharide and glycoprotein types, (2) their linkages in the three-dimensional network of the wall matrix, and (3) the structure synthesis and orientation of cellulose fibrils. These aspects (for reviews see ASPINALL 1981, KATO 1981, FRANZ and HEINIGER 1981) will be predominantly dealt with the present contribution.
