Ultrastructure of ramie was observed through transmission electron microscope to increase the yield and promote the quality of ramie and seek a way of scientific management of ramie. The results showed that fibre cell wall of ramie had 6 layers,1 of which formed the primary wall and 5 of which formed the secondary wall. By using optical microscope,it was observed that there were 3 different cellulose microfibil convoluting layers in the secondary wall,i.e. sexine layer,middle layer and internal layer. Cellulose microfibils appeared crosswise in the sexine and internal layer,axial arrangement i...
