Therefore, the QC must be the source of a signal that prevents differentiation of the root stem cells. Thus plant stem cells depend on the function of other, neighboring, cells to continue ...

Specialised plant cells include root hair cells, palisade cells, xylem cells and phloem cells. Just like animals, plants are made of tiny little cells. Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a ...

The researchers have shown, that a hitherto undetected group of cells in the plant root plays a decisive role. The researchers hope that these results will in the future lead to methods for making ...

The death of the plants is associated with the degeneration which takes place in the protoplasts of the meristematic cells of the root tips. 2. The first visible effect of the absence of calcium may ...

This process is mediated by ion channels in the plasma membrane of root cells, allowing passive transport of K + from areas of relatively high external concentration into the plant cells where the ...

New research from an international team of plant biologists, led by researchers at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems ...

A pioneering study has uncovered the sophisticated tactics root-knot nematodes use to manipulate the genetic machinery of ...

Researchers commonly use single-cell transcriptomics to sequence individual cells from a tissue to understand their stress responses ... biologists and has helped us understand the fundamental ...

Our group is studying the development of vascular cambium by using Arabidopsis thaliana root as a model ... called phellem (cork), they provide thickness to plant organs. We combine lineage tracing ...

"Unraveling this process will be essential to understanding how plant cells protect themselves from external disruptions such as pathogens and environmental insults," says Jose Julián, co-first ...
