Role of callose synthases in transfer cell wall development in tocopherol deficient Arabidopsis mutants [PDF]
Tocopherols (vitamin E) are lipid-soluble antioxidants produced by all plants and algae, and many cyanobacteria, yet their functions in these photosynthetic organisms are still not fully understood.

Developmental evolution of flowering plant pollen tube cell walls: callose synthase (
Background A number of innovations underlie the origin of rapid reproductive cycles in angiosperms. A critical early step involved the modification of an ancestrally short and slow-growing pollen tube for faster and longer distance transport of sperm to ...

The knowns and unknowns of callose biosynthesis in terrestrial plants.
Callose, a linear (1,3)-β-glucan, is an indispensable carbohydrate polymer required for plant growth and development. Advances in biochemical, genetic, and genomic tools, along with specific antibodies, have significantly enhanced our understanding of ...

Small RNA Derived from the Virulence Modulating Region of the Potato spindle tuber viroid Silences callose synthase Genes of Tomato Plants[OPEN] [PDF]
Small RNA derived from the virulence modulating region of the Potato spindle tuber viroid downregulates callose synthase by RNA silencing in tomato. The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) callose synthase genes CalS11-like and CalS12-like encode proteins that

A plant NLR receptor activates auxin signaling through Aux/IAAs-ARF19 and YUC8-TIR1/AFBs to promote callose-mediated antiviral defense. [PDF]
Phytohormone signaling pathways are crucial for defense against pathogens mediated by pattern recognition receptors and nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) immune receptors.

Genome-wide analysis of the CalS gene family in cotton reveals their potential roles in fiber development and responses to stress [PDF]
Callose deposition occurs during plant growth and development, as well as when plants are under biotic and abiotic stress. Callose synthase is a key enzyme for the synthesis of callose.

The function and biosynthesis of callose in high plants
The two main glucan polymers cellulose and callose in plant cell wall are synthesized at the plasma membrane by cellulose or callose synthase complexes. Cellulose is the prevalent glucan in cell wall and provides strength to the walls to support directed
