International audience. Extracellular matrices contain fibril-like polymers often organized in parallel arrays. Although their role in morphogenesis has been long recognized, it remains unclear how the subcellular control of fibril synthesis translates into organ shape. We address this question using the Arabidopsis sepal as a model organ. In plants, cell growth is restrained by the cell wall (extracellular matrix). Cellulose microfibrils are the main load-bearing wall component, thought to channel growth perpendicularly to their main orientation. Given the key function of CELLULOSE SYNTHASE INTERACTIVE1 (CSI1) in guidance of cellulose synthesis, we investigate the role of CSI1 in sepal morphogenesis. We observe that sepals from csi1 mutants are shorter, although their newest cellulose microfibrils are more aligned compared to wild-type. Surprisingly, cell growth anisotropy is similar in csi1 and wild-type plants. We resolve this apparent paradox by showing that CSI1 is required for spatial consistency of growth direction across the sepal.

Puzzle cell shape emerges from the interaction of growth with mechanical constraints

Abstract The puzzle-shaped cells found in the shoot epidermis of many plant species are a fascinating example of complex cell shapes. Because biological form often follows function, the unique shape of these cells suggests that th...

Reproducibility in organ size and shape is a fundamental trait of living organisms. Themechanisms underlying such robustness remain, however, to be elucidated. Taking the sepal ofArabidopsis as a model, we investigated whether var...
