Isolation and Transfection of Protoplasts From Maize Mesophyll Cells [PDF]
Bio-ProtocolProtoplast systems are widely used in plant research as versatile platforms for studying cellular processes and validating gene editing tools. In maize, they are particularly valuable because stable transformation in immature embryos is slow and labor ...

Programmed Cell Death Progresses Differentially in Epidermal and Mesophyll Cells of Lily Petals. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 In the petals of some species of flowers, programmed cell death (PCD) begins earlier in mesophyll cells than in epidermal cells. However, PCD progression in each cell type has not been characterized in detail.

Enhancement of Photosynthetic Capacity in Spongy Mesophyll Cells in White Leaves of Actinidia kolomikta [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Considering that Actinidia kolomikta bears abundant white leaves on reproductive branches during blossoming, we hypothesized that the white leaves may maintain photosynthetic capacity by adjustments of leaf anatomy and physiological regulation.

Metabolomic Responses of Guard Cells and Mesophyll Cells to Bicarbonate. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Anthropogenic CO2 presently at 400 ppm is expected to reach 550 ppm in 2050, an increment expected to affect plant growth and productivity. Paired stomatal guard cells (GCs) are the gate-way for water, CO2, and pathogen, while mesophyll cells (MCs ...

Deciphering Cell-Type-Specific Transcriptional Regulation in Tomato Leaves Through Ensemble Machine Learning and Single-Cell Transcriptomics [PDF]
PlantsHigh-throughput single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has substantially advanced plant transcriptional landscapes. However, decoding cell-type-specific transcriptional regulation in non-model crops like tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) remains challenging.

Conserved cellular patterning in the mesophyll of rice leaves
Plant Direct, 2023 The mesophyll cells of grass leaves, such as rice, are traditionally viewed as displaying a relatively uniform pattern, in contrast to the clear distinctions of palisade and spongy layers in typical eudicot leaves. This quantitative analysis of mesophyll

Ploidy influences wheat mesophyll cell geometry, packing and leaf function
Plant Direct, 2021 Leaf function is influenced by leaf structure, which is itself related not only to the spatial arrangement of constituent mesophyll cells, but also their size and shape.

A Model of Chloroplast Growth Regulation in Mesophyll Cells [PDF]
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2015 Chloroplasts regulate their growth to optimize photosynthesis. Quantitative data shows that the ratio of total chloroplast area to mesophyll cell area is constant across different cells within a single species, and also across species. Wild-type chloroplasts exhibit little scatter around this trend; highly irregularly-shaped mutant chloroplasts exhibit

Salt-mediated changes in leaf mesophyll cells of Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. plants [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2014 Five-week-old tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum) cv. Perkoz grown in pots containing garden soil in a growth chamber were submitted to 50 or 150 mM NaCl for 1 h, 2 and 5 days.

Mesophyll Cell Protoplasts of Potato [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1977 Mesophyll cell protoplasts were isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Russet Burbank) leaves and induced to proliferate in culture. Protoplast division was observed only among preparations isolated from plants previously conditioned under short periods of low intensity illumination. Sustained growth and development of protoplast-derived calli (
