This project investigates how the arrangement of cellulose microfibrils in plant cell walls contributes to structural coloration. By using molecular dynamics simulations, it aims to understand the interactions between cellulose and hemicelluloses, which could inform bio-inspired material design.
Structural coloration in plants, achieved through the arrangement of cellulose microfibrils into helicoidal architectures within the cell wall, is a widespread strategy observed in various plant species, including ferns, monocots, and eudicots.
Despite its prevalence, the underlying mechanisms responsible for these hierarchical structures in plant cell walls remain poorly understood.
To address this knowledge gap, this proposal focuses on unraveling the intricate interactions between cellulose a…
