Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 In contrast to somatic mammalian cells, which cannot alter their fate, plant cells can dedifferentiate to form totipotent callus cells and regenerate a whole plant, following treatment with specific phytohormones.

Functional analysis of the Arabidopsis TETRASPANIN gene family in plant growth and development [PDF]
, 2015 TETRASPANIN (TET) genes encode conserved integral membrane proteins that are known in animals to function in cellular communication during gamete fusion, immunity reaction and pathogen recognition.

Local expression of expansin induces the entire process of leaf development and modifies leaf shape [PDF]
, 2001 Expansins are a family of extracellular proteins proposed to play a key role in wall stress relaxation and, thus, in cell and tissue growth. To test the possible function of expansins in morphogenesis, we have developed a technique that allows transient ...

, 2022 ABSTRACTPlants respond to environmental stresses through controlled stem cell maintenance and meristem activity. One level of transcriptional control is RNA alternative splicing. However the mechanistic link between stress, meristem function and RNA splicing is poorly understood.

PLoS Genetics, 2020 Higher plants can continuously form new organs by the sustained activity of pluripotent stem cells. These stem cells are embedded in meristems, where they produce descendants, which undergo cell proliferation and differentiation programs in a ...

Transcriptome analysis of tomato flower pedicel tissues reveals abscission zone-specific modulation of key meristem activity genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Tomato flower abscises at the anatomically distinct abscission zone that separates the pedicel into basal and apical portions. During abscission, cell separation occurs only at the abscission zone indicating distinctive molecular regulation in its cells.

A molecular timetable for apical bud formation and dormancy induction in poplar [PDF]
, 2007 The growth of perennial plants in the temperate zone alternates with periods of dormancy that are typically initiated during bud development in autumn. In a systems biology approach to unravel the underlying molecular program of apical bud development in

Chromosomal characteristics of barley root meristems differentiated from calli
Biologia Plantarum, 1983 Callogenesis was induced in mature embryos. The efficiency of induction and the growth of calli were dependent on 2,4-D concentration. No regeneration of buds or shoots was observed in 720 calli studied, but most calli showed intensive root proliferation on the regeneration medium.
