Plant Physiology, Vol. 82, No. 4 (Dec., 1986), pp. 890-903 (14 pages) Suspension cultured cells of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv VFNT Cherry) adapted to water stress induced with ...
Stem cells function as a source of new cells to grow or replace specialised tissues. To perform this function, these cells must divide to renew themselves, while some of their descendants eventually ...
In the 15 years since the first plant genome was fully sequenced 1, plant biology has been at the forefront of developing tools to connect genotype to phenotype. It is a significant technical ...
As a plant extends its roots into the soil, the cells that form at their tips assume different roles, from transporting water to sensing gravity. A study points to one way by which these newly-formed ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . The Plant Cell is in its 19th year of publication. Within three years of its initial publication, it ranked first in impact among primary research ...
A study in the journal Science is offering new insights into a long-standing mystery about plant growth. The scientists who conducted the experiment say their results could open new avenues of ...
Purdue University researchers found that a subset of epidermal cells in plant leaves serves as early responders to chemical ...
The fine hairs on the underside of this sunflower are trichomes, single-celled structures that can shed light on how plant cells get their shape. (Purdue Agricultural Communication/Tom Campbell) ...
A mutant seedling revealed how plant tissues scatter incoming light, allowing plants to sense its direction and move toward it. On a shelf lined with terra cotta pots, herbs bend their stems toward ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Purdue University researchers have developed an algorithm that quantifies and analyzes shape changes in puzzle piece-shaped plant cells, providing insights into the small-scale ...
New research led by plant biologists at UC Davis, published Nov. 10 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reveals how plants control mutation rates in different stem cells to balance ...
Human chromosomes behave in much the same way as those of rodents, primates, and other close evolutionary cousins. But researchers don’t know whether those similarities might extend to distantly ...
