The Plant Cellular Systems for Plant Virus Movement
The Plant Pathology Journal, 2017 Plasmodesmata (PDs) are specialized intercellular channels that facilitate the exchange of various molecules, including sugars, ribonucleoprotein complexes, transcription factors, and mRNA.

Rapid movements in plants [PDF]
Journal of Plant Research, 2021 AbstractPlant movements are generally slow, but some plant species have evolved the ability to move very rapidly at speeds comparable to those of animals. Whereas movement in animals relies on the contraction machinery of muscles, many plant movements use turgor pressure as the primary driving force together with secondarily generated elastic forces ...

Watching plants’ dance: movements of live and dead branches linked to atmospheric water demand
Ecosphere, 2021 Diurnal branch movements in woody plants have only recently been described in detail. While previously only vegetative and reproductive structures have been known to move on hourly timescales, imaging technologies such as terrestrial laser scanning and ...

Breaking the Myth of Nuclear Power Omnipotence in the Cold War era: Discourse on Nuclear Power and the Movement against the Construction of Nuclear Power Plants in South Korea in the 1980s and early 1990s [PDF]
International Journal of Korean History, 2023 In South Korea, the frontline of the Cold War in East Asia, an active anti-nuclear movement could not emerge until the 1970s due to the effects of Korean War, national division, and the Cold War culture.

Biomimetic Applications of Mimosa pudica L. in the Theoretical Development of a Pneumatic Actuator
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2022 For years, plants have tried to adapt to the environmental changes caused by time, improving and developing their biological structures. Many of these structural and functional properties of plants have great potential for the development of concepts in ...

Plasmodesmata-Dependent Intercellular Movement of Bacterial Effectors
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Pathogenic microorganisms deliver protein effectors into host cells to suppress host immune responses. Recent findings reveal that phytopathogens manipulate the function of plant cell-to-cell communication channels known as plasmodesmata (PD) to promote ...
