The enzyme phytochelatin synthase (PCS) has long been studied with regard to its role in metal(loid) detoxification in several organisms, i.e., plants, yeasts, and nematodes. It is in fact widely recognized that PCS detoxifies a number of heavy metals by

Callose Biosynthesis Regulates Symplastic Trafficking during Root Development [PDF]
SummaryPlant cells are connected through plasmodesmata (PD), membrane-lined channels that allow symplastic movement of molecules between cells. However, little is known about the role of PD-mediated signaling during plant morphogenesis. Here, we describe

The tie-dyed2 (tdy2) mutant of maize (Zea mays) displays variegated green and yellow leaves. Intriguingly, the yellow leaf tissues hyperaccumulate starch and sucrose, the soluble sugar transported long distance through the phloem of veins.

Is callose required for silicification in plants? [PDF]
The cell wall polymer callose catalyses the formation of silica in vitro and is heavily implicated in biological silicification in Equisetum (horsetail) and Arabidopsis (thale cress) in vivo Callose, a ß-1,3-glucan, is an ideal partner for silicification,

SPOROGENESIS AND CALLOSE LOCALIZATION IN ANTHOCERATOPHYTA
Spores are fundamental to the reproductive success of all land plants. The success of a spore lies in its recalcitrant multi-layered spore wall commonly made of sporopollenin, cellulose, and pectin.

Research has demonstrated that strigolactones (SLs) mediate plant disease resistance; however, the basal mechanism is unclear. Here, we provide key genetic evidence supporting how SLs mediate plant disease resistance.

Callose metabolism genes in chickpea reveal vascular defense against fusarium wilt
Chickpea, serves as high protein pulse crop for vegetarian people, faces major field losses from biotic stress like Fusarium wilt. Wilt management through biotechnological interventions using next generation sequencing method like transcriptomics have ...

Mechanisms and regulation of callose deposition to the cell wall of Arabidopsis thaliana
Callose (β-1,3-glucan) is a significant plant cell wall polysaccharide, which participates in many developmental and stress responses. Despite the importance of this polymer, the knowledge on the causes of callose synthesis, its regulation and the ...
