We have studied the elasticity and load bearing ability of plant tissue at the cellular level, using onion (Allium cepa) epidermal cells. The Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of the cells were obtained by loading a tensile force on onion epidermal peels of different turgor pressures, and measuring the elongation and the lateral contraction of th...
