Cortical microtubuli in elongated plant cells. The microtubuli are labelled with indirect immunofluorescence. The pattern of orientation of the microtubuli correlates with the arrangement of the cell wall's cellulose fibrils. a: microtubuli in a meristematic cell of Allium (photo by L. CLAYTON and C. W. LLOYD, 1985). b: microtubuli within an apical protonema cell of Physcomitrella patens (J. H. DOONAN, D. J. COVE and C. W. LLOYD, 1985)
