Abstract:

This paper makes a comprehensive and detailed review on the international research into cell wall mechanics of tracheids, including its history and present research status. Furthermore, some important experimental methods for the determination of mechanical properties of tracheids as well as some mechanical models are relatively emphasized. Finally, several proposals are also presented for the way to carry out researches on cell wall mechanics of tracheids in China.
