By using the techniques of partial digestion of cell wall and selective extraction, we examined the cytoskeleton of wheat young leaf cells under scanning electron microscope(SEM). A 3-dimensional cytoskeletal system, showing some new features, was observed. The cortical network located beneath the cross wall was an anastomosing organization. The association of nucleus with the cell wall by some skeletal filaments was also found. It is noticeable that there were cytoskeletal filaments, which passed through cell wall and connected together with cytoskeletal arrays of adjacent cells. Thus, it is possible that an integral skeletal network existed within the young leaf tissue of wheat.
