Structure and Biomechanics during Xylem Vessel Transdifferentiation in <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>

Structure and Biomechanics during Xylem Vessel Transdifferentiation in <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>

Individual plant cells are the building blocks for all plantae and artificially constructed plant biomaterials, like biocomposites. Secondary cell walls (SCWs) are a key component for mediating mechanical strength and stiffness in both living vascular plants and biocomposite materials. In this paper...
