There are two families of lines describing the cell wall pattern in root and shoot apices; periclines anticlines. The these mutually orthogonal steady during apex growth. They approximate orientation walls apices. These preserved growing organ. direction anticlines is regulated at organ level. This paper focuses on question: how maintained? a number rules, which deal with problem new wall. We test three them: Errera rule (the smallest possible area that divides mother into equal portions chosen), Sachs perpendicular to nearest from geometric center where it inserted) Hejnowicz postulate one principal directions growth rate). tested rules computer simulation divisions.
