ABSTRACT
Cellulose is synthesized by all higher plants as well as by a wide variety of other organisms. The amount of synthesis is enormous, making cellulose the most abundant biopolymer on earth (1 ) . Most native cellulose is found in cell walls in the form of structural micro - fib rils . Although considerable effort has gone into investigating the various aspects of cellulose biosynthesis, and not without many exciting successes, much is yet to be understood about cellulose synthesis, microfibril structure, and microfibril deposition within cell walls.
