Mechanism of formation of spiral grain in Aesculus stems: dissymmetry of deformation of stems caused by cyclic torsion
The reversibility of deformation of young (3-10-year-old) Aesculus hippocastanum stems was investigated after subjecting them to alternate torsion to the right and left as well as the orientation of the microfibrillar helix in the main S2 layer of the secondary cell wall in fibres. The studies demon...
