Control of cell expansion is an integral part of plant development. The timing, extent, and direction of cell enlargement should be coordinated among different cell types in given organs to form defined shapes. In a growing plant cell, controlled expansion of the primary cell wall causes cell enlargement since the osmotically induced turgor pressure inside a cell generally remains constant. The direction of cell enlargement is thought to be dictated by the orientation of the cortical microtubules, which alien in the same orientation as the cellulose
