Suberin goes genomics: Use of a short living plant to investigate a long lasting polymer
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012 Suberin is a highly persistent cell wall polymer, predominantly composed of long-chain hydroxylated fatty acids. Apoplastic suberin depositions occur in internal and peripheral dermal tissues where they generate lipophilic barriers preventing ...

Plants, 2014 Light regulates the expression and function of aquaporins, which are involved in water and solute transport. In Arabidopsis thaliana, mRNA levels of one of the aquaporin genes, TIP2;2, increase during dark adaptation and decrease under far-red light ...

A dirigent family protein confers variation of Casparian strip thickness and salt tolerance in maize
Nature Communications, 2022 Most crops are farmed under high transpiring environments, but our understanding of transpiration-dependent salt tolerance (TDST) remains limited. Here, the authors report a dirigent family protein is responsible for TDST by affecting lignin deposition ...

COMPARATIVE ANATOMICAL STUDIES ON LEAVES AND STEM OF CERTAIN TAXA OF CONIFERS AND THEIR SYSTEMATIC SIGNIFICANCE [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2004 Eight conifer taxa belonging to four families, i.e., Pinaceae, Taxodiaceae, Araucariaceae and Cupressaceae were collected during spring and summer of 2003 season to compare the anatomical structure of both leaves and stems and evaluate their ...

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd2+) contamination in agricultural soils has been reported to pose risks to crop productivity, food safety, and human health. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms by which essential (S, Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca) and beneficial (Si, Se, rare earth elements) elements mitigate Cd2+ toxicity in plants.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Anemia due to iron deficiency is a worldwide issue, affecting mainly children and women. Seed iron is a major source of this micronutrient for feeding, however, in most crops these levels are too low to meet daily needs.

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Gibberellin Signaling in the Endodermis Controls Arabidopsis Root Meristem Size [PDF]
Current Biology, 2009 Plant growth is driven by cell proliferation and elongation. The hormone gibberellin (GA) regulates Arabidopsis root growth by controlling cell elongation, but it is currently unknown whether GA also controls root cell proliferation. Here we show that GA biosynthetic mutants are unable to increase their cell production rate and meristem size after ...
