Function of WAKs in Regulating Cell Wall Development and Responses to Abiotic Stress [PDF]

Plants
Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are instrumental in regulating plant cell surface sensing and vascular tissue differentiation. Wall-associated kinases (WAKs) are a unique group of RLKs that have been identified as key cell wall integrity (CWI) sensors.

Acceleration of Aril Cracking by Ethylene in Torreya grandis During Nut Maturation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Torreya grandis ‘Merrillii’ is a famous nut with great nutritional value and high medicinal value. Aril cracking is an important process for seed dispersal, which is also an indicator of seed maturation. However, the cracking mechanism of T. grandis aril

Plant cell walls [PDF]

Current Biology, 2017
Plants are able to generate large leaf surfaces that act as two-dimensional solar panels with a minimum investment in building material, thanks to a hydrostatic skeleton. This requires high intracellular pressures (up to 1 MPa), which depend on the presence of strong cell walls.

Diversity and Composition of Culturable Microorganisms and Their Biodeterioration Potentials in the Sandstone of Beishiku Temple, China

Microorganisms, 2023
Microbial colonization on stone monuments leads to subsequent biodeterioration; determining the microbe diversity, compositions, and metabolic capacities is essential for understanding biodeterioration mechanisms and undertaking heritage management. Here,

Systematic Comparison of Cell Wall-Related Proteins of Different Yeasts

Journal of Fungi, 2021
Yeast cell walls have two major roles, to preserve physical integrity of the cell, and to ensure communication with surrounding molecules and cells. While the first function requires evolutionary conserved polysaccharide network synthesis, the second ...

Mini Review: Transport of Hydrophobic Polymers Into the Plant Apoplast

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The plant apoplast contains the four hydrophobic polymer, lignin, suberin, cutin, and cutan, that are crucial for stress resistance, controlling solute diffusion, and strengthening the cell wall.

Niche Specialization and Functional Overlap of Bamboo Leaf and Root Microbiota

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Leaves and roots harbor taxonomically diverse bacterial assemblages which enhance plant growth and performance by increasing nutrient supply and resistance to stress. An extensive investigation of bacterial diversity and composition between leaf and root

Biochemical and Functional Characterization of GALT8, an Arabidopsis GT31 β-(1,3)-Galactosyltransferase That Influences Seedling Development

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are members of the hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (HRGP) superfamily, a group of highly diverse proteoglycans that are present in the cell wall, plasma membrane as well as secretions of almost all plants, with important ...
