Abstract
⺠Cell wall appositions appear at the contact site with micro-organisms in fern roots. ⺠Infecting microbes are immobilized when attempting to penetrate intracellularly. ⺠Cell wall appositions are made of a non-lignified polysaccharide matrix. ⺠Callose and lignins are absent, yellow-brown phenolic compounds are present. ⺠They create a barrier protecting the root against infections.
