Divisional activity, intrusive growth of the cell wall and loss of fusiform initials have been studied in Holoptelea integrifolia. The dimensional changes in relation to mean length, length frequency, mean width and length variation in relation to fibre length have also been analysed.

Keywords: Cambial activity; intrusive growth; loss of initials
