Interpretive Summary: Tip growth is a type of cellular growth that is represented in many and diverse cell types, which are important to plant breeding (pollen tubes), agriculture (root hairs) and plant and animal pathology (fungal hyphae). In this chapter the potential roles of extensin-like proteins, components of the extracellular matrix are reviewed.
