Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are created and how their ...

A research team at the IPK Leibniz Institute has developed a method that enables the detailed observation of female ...

At first glance, plant and animal cells have a lot in common: they’re both highly organized, keep their DNA tucked away in an envelope, and are kinda juicy inside. But plant cells have evolved some ...

Scientists have created a new atlas of plant cells during immune response, in turn discovering a new rare cell state, called Primary IMmunE Responder (PRIMER), that acts as an immune response hub to ...

Scientists have identified a crucial mechanism that allows plants to shape their vascular systems, determining whether they ...

(a) Examples of medicinal plants and their meristematic tissues as sources for stem cell generation. (b) Advantages of using medicinal plant stem cells in research and industrial applications. (c) In ...

Similar to humans, plants have an immune system to help defend against parasites and other deleterious infections. The human body is interconnected with cell-to-cell communication to orchestrate an ...

With intensifying global warming and climate change, drought has become a major threat to global agriculture, impacting crop yields and food security. To survive such adverse events, plants have ...
