The CLV-WUS Stem Cell Signaling Pathway: A Roadmap to Crop Yield Optimization
Plants, 2018 The shoot apical meristem at the growing shoot tip acts a stem cell reservoir that provides cells to generate the entire above-ground architecture of higher plants. Many agronomic plant yield traits such as tiller number, flower number, fruit number, and

B-Function Expression in the Flower Center Underlies the Homeotic Phenotype of Lacandonia schismatica (Triuridaceae) [PDF]
, 2010 Spontaneous homeotic transformations have been described in natural populations of both plants and animals, but little is known about the molecular-genetic mechanisms underlying these processes in plants.

Regulation of Plant Growth and Development: A Review From a Chromatin Remodeling Perspective
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 In eukaryotes, genetic material is packaged into a dynamic but stable nucleoprotein structure called chromatin. Post-translational modification of chromatin domains affects the expression of underlying genes and subsequently the identity of cells by ...

From A. rhizogenes RolD to Plant P5CS: Exploiting Proline to Control Plant Development [PDF]
, 2018 The capability of the soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes to reprogram plant development and induce adventitious hairy roots relies on the expression of a few root-inducing genes (rol A, B, C and D), which can be transferred from large virulence ...

Microplastics in Agricultural Soil: Fate, Impacts, and Bioremediation by Earthworms
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.Microplastics enter the soil through various means, including the degradation of plastic film mulch, waste from cosmetics industries and municipalities, and the use of bioplastic seed coatings. These microplastics disrupt soil structure, microbial activity, enzyme function, and plant growth.

Cell type boundaries organize plant development
eLife, 2017 In plants the dorsoventral boundary of leaves defines an axis of symmetry through the centre of the organ separating the top (dorsal) and bottom (ventral) tissues.

Eurasian watermilfoil biomass associated with insect herbivores in New York [PDF]
, 2000 A study of aquatic plant biomass within Cayuga Lake, New York spans twelve years from 1987-1998. The exotic Eurasian watermilfoil ( Myriophyllum spicatum L.) decreased in the northwest end of the lake from 55% of the total biomass in 1987 to 0.4 ...
