The plant secretory pathway seen through the lens of the cell wall [PDF]

open access: yesProtoplasma, 2016
Secretion in plant cells is often studied by looking at well-characterised, evolutionarily conserved membrane proteins associated with particular endomembrane compartments. Studies using live cell microscopy and fluorescent proteins have illuminated the highly dynamic nature of trafficking, and electron microscopy studies have resolved the ...

Response to recharge variation of thin rainwater lenses and their mixing zone with underlying saline groundwater [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2012
In coastal zones with saline groundwater, fresh groundwater lenses may form due to infiltration of rain water. The thickness of both the lens and the mixing zone, determines fresh water availability for plant growth.
