Fig. 4: Diagrammatic representation of ‘Multinet’ growth In the most recantly laid down layer microfibrils are laid down with an approximately transverse orientation. Microfibrils in layers which were laid down at an earlier stage of cell wall development have become disoriented by deformation of the amorphous matrix in which they are embedded. The microfibril density has also been reduced since the same number have been spread over a greater area of wall
