Growth and developmentThe diversity of plant development

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2007
www.sciencedirect.com The reviews on plant development presented here cover a wide range of subjects that seem only loosely connected. In a sense, this is a departure from the direction of the field over the past 15 years with its increasing focus on Arabidopsis as a model system.

Plant development

2019
This chapter explores the development of plants. It expounds on how a plant’s architecture is the result of patterns of oriented cell divisions with a combination of positional signals and intercellular communication. Moreover, the chapter discusses cytoplasmic channels interconnecting plant cells. It notes the regeneration of an isolated somatic cell,

Histone Acetylation and Plant Development

2016
Reversible histone acetylation and deacetylation at the N-terminus of histone tails play a crucial role in regulation of gene activity. Hyperacetylation of histones relaxes chromatin structure and is associated with transcriptional activation, whereas hypoacetylation of histones induces chromatin compaction and gene repression.

Ascorbate system in plant development

Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 1994
By using lycorine, a specific inhibitor of ascorbate biosynthesis, it was possible to demonstrate that plant cells consume a high quantity of ascorbate (AA). The in vivo metabolic reactions utilizing ascorbate are the elimination of H2O2 by ascorbate peroxidase and the hydroxylation of proline residues present in the polypeptide chains by means of ...

Unraveling the knots in plant development

Trends in Genetics, 1992
Homeobox genes, first discovered from studies of homeotic mutations in Drosophila, have recently been found in plants. The proteins encoded by homeobox genes thus join the ranks of other animal transcription factors that have plant developmental counterparts, suggesting that even though plant and animal development are very different, regulatory ...

The cell cycle in plant development

New Phytologist, 1992
summaryThe aim of this review is to discuss the molecular controls of the cell cycle in relation to higher plant development. An analysis is made of the current models of the cell cycle based on the biochemistry and genetics of the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Chromatin regulation of plant development

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2003
Chromatin remodeling factors are being identified as genetic modifiers of developmental mutations in plants. These mutations result in lethality in metazoans, whereas in plants, they are viable and affect a wide range of developmental and physiological processes.

Plants, animals and the logic of development

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 1999
Multicellular plants and animals have evolved independently from a unicellular, last common ancestor. Each lineage started with a common toolkit of functioning genes and evolved to complex, multicellular forms. Comparison of the genes used to serve similar functions shows how organisms can use different genes for similar ends and thereby reveals the ...
