An investigation is described in which cell-wall thickness, linear density, and filament tenacity were studied for jute fibres of both the C. capsularis and C. olitorius species at different stages of growth of the jute plant. It is shown that the cell-wall thickness goes on increasing for 120 days and then levels off, whereas the linear density goes on increasing for only about 60 days and then falls and levels off after 80 days. The fact that, despite the increase in cell-wall thickness, the linear density does not increase afier 70-80 days indicates that filaments become split at some stage prior to ihe determination of linear density. Breaking strength at first increases rapidly and then levels off after 80 days and falls after 120 days. Variation in breaking strengih is consistent with the variation in multicellular character, cementing material, and fine structure of the fibre with the growth of the plant.
