« Lomasomes »: their probable role in the expansion growth of the cell wall. — It was previously reported that lomasomes are present in higher plant cells. In a preliminary comunication Authors described the morfological characteristics of the lomasomes and their position in the cell. It was shown that lomasomes vary in organization which appears to be granular or vescicular and in distribution along the cell wall. Both these characters seemed directly related with the level of cellular differentiation.
