Organogenesis at the Shoot Apical Meristem [PDF]
Lateral organ initiation at the shoot apical meristem involves complex changes in growth rates and directions, ultimately leading to the formation of leaves, stems and flowers.

Auxin at the Shoot Apical Meristem [PDF]
Plants continuously generate new tissues and organs through the activity of populations of undifferentiated stem cells, called meristems. Here, we discuss the so-called shoot apical meristem (SAM), which generates all the aerial parts of the plant. It has been known for many years that auxin plays a central role in the functioning of this meristem ...

Control of proliferation in the haploid meristem by CLE peptide signaling in Marchantia polymorpha. [PDF]
The homeostasis of meristems in flowering plants is maintained by cell-to-cell communication via CLE (CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-related) peptide hormones.

Vegetative Apical Meristems. [PDF]
A fascinating aspect of plant biology is that a small cell group is the origin of shoot systems as varied as redwood trees or Arabidopsis. The first recognition that shoot systems originate from small groups of cells was by Kaspar Wolff in 1759 (cited in Cutter, 1965). These small groups of cells are known as shoot apical meristems.

Comparative Ontogeny of Hermaphrodite and Pistillate Florets in Helianthus annuus L. (Asteraceae)
The inflorescence of Helianthus annuus L. has two types of flowers (or florets) on a single capitulum; central hermaphrodite disc florets and peripheral pistillate ray florets.

Auxin Metabolism in the Root Apical Meristem [PDF]
Abstract Within the root meristem of flowering plants is a group of mitotically inactive cells designated the quiescent center (QC). Recent work links the quiescent state to high levels of the growth regulator auxin that accumulates in the QC via polar transport. This in turn results in elevated levels of the enzyme ascorbic acid oxidase

Investigating the Shape of the Shoot Apical Meristem in Bamboo Using a Superellipse Equation
The shoot apical meristem is the origin of bamboo wood. Its structure and morphology are important for maintaining the normal development of bamboo wood. However, the traditional method to describe the morphology of the shoot apical meristem in bamboo or

Pattern formation during de novo assembly of the Arabidopsis shoot meristem [PDF]
Most multicellular organisms have a capacity to regenerate tissue after wounding. Few, however, have the ability to regenerate an entire new body from adult tissue. Induction of new shoot meristems from cultured root explants is a widely used, but poorly

Aim. The aim of the research is to study the cytogenetic disorders in the cells of apical meristem of the sprouts of urban green plantations of the small-leaved linden (Tilia cordata L.) and rattlertree (Populus alba L.) growing under different ...

Control of Arabidopsis apical-basal embryo polarity by antagonistic transcription factors. [PDF]
Plants, similarly to animals, form polarized axes during embryogenesis on which cell differentiation and organ patterning programs are orchestrated. During Arabidopsis embryogenesis, establishment of the shoot and root stem cell populations occurs at ...
