graphic file with name mcf010f4a.jpg — Fig. 4. Using weighted means of cells in sclerenchyma fibre bundles, fibre cell area was 76 µm² and fibre protoplast area was 47 µm² at 45 mm distal to the ligule (A) while fibre cell area was 89 µm² and protoplast area was 50 µm² at 75 mm distal to the ligule (B). Increase in cell wall thickness occurred primarily by increase in the outer diameter of fibre cells rather than by a decrease in diameter of fibre protoplasts.
