Secondary wall, of which most characteristic component is lignin, is important for the structural support of aged body of higher plants. It is postulated that acquisition of lignin synthesis play a critical role in evolution of land plants. However, effects of gravity on the development and the morphology of secondary cell wall have not been well investigated. In this study, effects of averaging of gravity vector using 2-D clinostat rotation on the structure of xylem was examined. The results indicated that the morphology of xylem is regulated by the orientation of gravity vector.
