Cellular Basis of Hypocotyl Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Abstract The Arabidopsis thaliana hypocotyl is widely used to study the effects of light and plant growth factors on cell elongation. To provide a framework for the molecular-genetic analysis of cell elongation in this organ, here we describe, at the cellular level, its morphology and growth and identify a number of characteristic ...

A central molecular adaptor, ZSL, is identified that links transverse filaments ZYP1 to central element SCEP1/2 to drive synaptonemal complex assembly in Brassica napus. Loss of ZSL abolishes synaptonemal complex formation, disrupts meiotic chromosome segregation, and markedly increases crossovers, providing mechanistic insight into meiotic fidelity ...

Plant grafting, the ancient practice of cutting and joining different plants, is gaining popularity as an elegant way to generate chimeras that combine desirable traits.

Early Detection of Phenotypic Diversity of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) in Response to Temperature
Climate change may have important consequences on plant distribution because local environments could change faster than the pace of natural selection and adaptation of wild populations and cultivars of perennial forages.

Histone Kinase from Soybean Hypocotyls [PDF]
A histone-type protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) has been partially purified (320-fold) from the crude extracts of soybean hypocotyls by means of a combination of gel filtration and anion exchange procedures. The purified enzyme fraction is devoid of the activities of phosphoprotein phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.16), histone protease, and casein (or phosvitin)-type

ABSTRACT Inositol pyrophosphates (PP‐InsPs) are central regulators of eukaryotic signaling events. While certain PP‐InsP isomers have been conclusively linked to the regulation of phosphate homeostasis through interaction with SPX domain‐containing proteins in plants, the functions of the recently discovered isomer 4/6‐PP‐InsP5 remain largely unknown ...

Phototropism in Hypocotyls of Radish [PDF]
When etiolated radish (Raphanus sativus var. hortensis f. gigantissimus Makino) hypocotyls were subjected to a continuous unilateral illumination with white fluorescent light (0.1 watt per square meter), the growth rate at the lighted side was strongly inhibited for the first 2 hours, while that at the shaded side showed no change.

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development
ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

Composition of Flax Hypocotyl Fibres
Abstract Fibres in the middle part of the hypocotyl of young flax plantlets are organised in a circle of one hundred cells around the vascular cylinder. Apart from cellulose, their walls, of large thickness (2-5 μm), contain 30 to 50% of non-cellulosic polysaccharides (NCPs).
