Changes in cell-wall polysaccharide composition of developingNitella internodes : Analysis of walls of single cells.

Abstract:

:Changes in the uronide, neutral-polysacharide, and cellulose composition of the cell wall ofNitella axillaris Braun were followed throughout development of the internodes and correlated with changes in growth rate. As the cells increased in length from 4 to 80 mm during development, the relative growth rate decreased. Cell wall thickness, as measured by wall density, increased in direct proportion to diameter, indicating that cell-wall stress did not change during elogation. Cell-wall analyses were adapted to allow determination of the composition of the wall of single cells. The total amounts of uronides, neutral sugars and cellulose all increased during development. However, as the growth rate decreased, the relative proportions of uronides and neutral sugars, expressed as percent of the dry weight of the wall, decreased, while the proportion of cellulose increased. The neutral sugars liberated upon hydrolysis ofNitella walls are qualitatively similar to those found in hydrolysates of higher plant cell walls: glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, arabinose fucose and rhamnose. Only the percentage of galactose was found to increase in walls of mature cells, while the percentage of all other sugars decreased. The rate of apposition (μg of wall material deposited per unit wall surface area per hour) of neutral polysaccharides decreased rapidly with decreasing growth rate during the early stages of development. The rate of apposition of uronides decreased more steadily throughout development, while that of cellulose, after an early decline, remained constant until dropping off at the end of the elongation period. These correlations between decreasing growth rate and decreasing rate of apposition of neutral sugars and uronides indicate that synthesis of these cell-wall components could be involved in the regulation of the rate of cell elongation inNitella.
