Transdetermination of plant cells

Differentiation, 1986
Tissues derived from the leaf lamina of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Havana 425 plants require cytokinin for continuous proliferation in culture, whereas tissues derived from the cortex of the stem are cytokinin autotrophic. Both phenotypes persist when the two types of cells are cloned, indicating that leaf- and cortex-derived cells are determined to ...

The illuminated plant cell

Trends in Plant Science, 2007
The past decade has provided biologists with a palette of genetically encoded, multicolored fluorescent proteins. The living plant cell turned into a 'coloring book' and today, nearly every text-book organelle has been highlighted in scintillating fluorescent colors.

Electrofusion of Plant Cells

2003
Isolated plant protoplasts can be induced to fuse with protoplasts from different species and, therefore, provide an ideal system for genetic modification and for use in plant breeding. Techniques for electrofusion of plant protoplasts have been developed relatively recently, and specialized apparatus is required, although this is now becoming more ...

Cell interactions in plants

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1992
Plant cells interact during development through diverse mechanisms that range from genetically encoded signals to physical stresses. Pollen self-incompatibility is the best understood cell interaction in plants. Analysis of genes that appear to be involved in specific developmental signals, such as liguleless1 from maize and GLABROUS1 from Arabidopsis,

Cell division in plants

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1993
The past couple of years have seen the isolation and characterization of many of the regulatory genes from plants that are thought to be intimately involved in regulation of the cell division cycle. In addition, characterization of plant-specific aspects of the cell division cycle has provided insight into how spatial and temporal controls may be ...

Immobilized plant cells

1985
Immobilization of plant cells is still a young technology but this review illustrates the potential it has for improving the production of phytochemicals. The similarity between the immobilized state and whole tissue is emphasized and the way in which this can be used to advantage is discussed.

Cell-to-cell movement of plant viruses

Trends in Microbiology, 1993
To establish an infection, most plant viruses move from cell to cell in the plant. Virus-encoded movement proteins mediate this process and appear to use two mechanisms for transport. Both mechanisms involve interaction with and potential modification of plant intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata.

THE SAP OF PLANT CELLS

New Phytologist, 1987
SummaryRecent advances in the understanding of the functional relevance of sap of mature plant cells are reviewed. The emphasis is placed on roles of vacuoles played in the temporary storage of saccharides and organic acids, in the accumulation of water soluble products of secondary metabolism and in the intracellular digestion of protein ...

Optical Trapping in Plant Cells

2013
Optical tweezers allow noninvasive manipulation of subcellular compartments to study their physical interactions and attachments. By measuring (delay of) displacements, (semi-)quantitative force measurements within a living cell can be performed. In this chapter, we provide practical tips for setting up such experiments paying special attention to the ...

Composition of plant cell walls

Zeitschrift f�r Lebensmittel-Untersuchung und -Forschung, 1995
The present study reviews the most recent research published (starting approximately in the 1980s) on the composition of plant cell walls, with a description of the polysaccharides contained in the microfibrillar and amorphous phases: cellulose, hemicellulose and pectic substances, as well as the other components: lignin, proteins and enzymes ...
