4 Discussion 
4.1 Regulation of plasmodesmal permeability might have been critical for the evolution of complex multicellular plants
4.2 Turgor may affect plasmodesmal permeability
4.3 Plasmodesmal permeability may affect turgor-driven growth of cotton fiber cells
4.4 Removing the dynamics of plasmodesmal permeability may preclude non monotonic behavior of turgor pressure
