Plant Cell Wall as a Key Player During Resistant and Susceptible Plant-Virus Interactions
The cell wall is a complex and integral part of the plant cell. As a structural element it sustains the shape of the cell and mediates contact among internal and external factors.

Isolation of Plant Cell Wall Proteins [PDF]
The quality of a proteomic analysis of a cell compartment strongly depends on the reliability of the isolation procedure for the cell compartment of interest. Plant cell walls possess specific drawbacks: (1) the lack of a surrounding membrane may result in the loss of cell wall proteins (CWP) during the isolation procedure; (2) polysaccharide networks ...

Insight into the early steps of root hair formation revealed by the procuste1 cellulose synthase mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Background: formation of plant root hairs originating from epidermal cells involves selection of a polar initiation site and production of an initial hair bulge which requires local cell wall loosening. In Arabidopsis the polar initiation site is located

Cell wall involvement in desiccation tolerance in the resurrection plant Craterostigma wilmsii [PDF]
Bibliography: leaves 92-129.Resurrection plants have the unique capacity to revive from an air-dried state. In order to cope with desiccation, resurrection plants have to overcome a number of stresses, mechanical stress being one.

Probing the molecular architecture of Arabidopsis thaliana secondary cell walls using two- and three-dimensional 13C solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy [PDF]
The plant secondary cell wall is a thickened polysaccharide and phenolic structure, providing mechanical strength to cells, particularly in woody tissues. It is the main feedstock for the developing bioenergy and green chemistry industries.
