Pectin, Lignin and Disease Resistance in Brassica napus L.: An Update

Horticulturae, 2023
The plant cell wall is dynamically modified during host–pathogen interactions and acts as a crucial factor controlling plant immunity. In the context of recently revised models of plant primary cell walls (PCWs), pectin is considered to be important in ...

Cell proliferation, cell shape, and microtubule and cellulose microfibril organization of tobacco BY-2 cells are not altered by exposure to near weightlessness in space [PDF]

, 2009
The microtubule cytoskeleton and the cell wall both play key roles in plant cell growth and division, determining the plant’s final stature. At near weightlessness, tubulin polymerizes into microtubules in vitro, but these microtubules do not self ...

Plant cell wall dynamics and wall-related susceptibility in plant-pathogen interactions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The cell wall is a dynamic structure that often determines the outcome of the interactions between plants and pathogens. It is a barrier that pathogens need to breach to colonize the plant tissue.

The glutamate receptor gene GLR3.3: A bridge of calcium-mediated root development in poplar

Horticultural Plant Journal
Poplar is one of the fastest-growing temperate trees in the world and is widely used in ornamental horticulture for shade. The root is essential for tree growth and development and its utilization potential is huge. Calcium (Ca), as a signaling molecule,

The Draft Genome of the Invasive Walking Stick, Medauroidea extradendata, Reveals Extensive Lineage-Specific Gene Family Expansions of Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes in Phasmatodea

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018
Plant cell wall components are the most abundant macromolecules on Earth. The study of the breakdown of these molecules is thus a central question in biology.

Accumulation of N-acetylglucosamine oligomers in the plant cell wall affects plant architecture in a dose-dependent and conditional manner [PDF]

, 2014
To study the effect of short N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) oligosaccharides on the physiology of plants, N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINYLTRANSFERASE (NodC) of Azorhizobium caulinodans was expressed in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana).

Modifying lignin composition and xylan O-acetylation induces changes in cell wall composition, extractability, and digestibility

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Lignin and xylan are important determinants of cell wall structure and lignocellulosic biomass digestibility. Genetic manipulations that individually modify either lignin or xylan structure improve polysaccharide digestibility.

O-acetylation of Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Plant cell walls are composed of structurally diverse polymers, many of which are O-acetylated. How plants O-acetylate wall polymers and what its function is remained elusive until recently, when two protein families were identified in the model plant ...

Identification and characterisation of the Arabidopsis thaliana cell wall proteome: unravelling novel cell wall proteins and new potential functions of the plant extracellular matrix [PDF]

, 2001
The application of the proteomic approach has facilitated efforts directed toward the mapping of the entire Arabidopsis cell wall proteome. Proteins were sequentially extracted from purified cell walls using 0.2 M CaC1(_2) followed by a urea buffer.

Cell-wall hemicelluloses as mobile carbon stores in plants [PDF]

, 2009
Hemicelluloses are the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature after cellulose. So far, the chemical heterogeneity of cell-wall hemicelluloses and the relatively large sample-volume required in existing methods represent major obstacles for large ...
