Plant Biology: Bending of Plant Organs [PDF]
Current Biology, 2020 Tissue folding allows for the development of complex three-dimensional morphologies necessary for various functions. A new study provides novel mechanistic insights linking plant cell wall and hormonal pathways involved in bending of plant tissue through regulation of differential growth.
