The plant stem-cell niche and pluripotency: 15 years of an epigenetic perspective [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Pluripotent stem-cells are slowly dividing cells giving rise to daughter cells that can either differentiate to new tissues and organs, or remain stem-cells.

Plant Stem Cells in Cosmetic Industry [PDF]
PlantsIt is interesting to note that some of the most lucrative commercial products available today are derived from plant cell cultures. Apple, grape, ginger, rice, and other plant stem cells have been successfully and extensively utilized in cosmetic preparations all over the world. The advantages of plant cell suspensions over field-grown complete plants,

Mechanisms of Alignment in Feeding Aphids on the Plant Stem [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionABSTRACTAphids are observed on various plant species, with most aphids feeding downward on stems. In this study, I studied the variations in feeding postures of aphids and their mechanisms. My field observations revealed that the majority of individuals from most species fed facing downward, or more precisely, towards the roots.

Competition models for plant stems
Journal of Differential Equations, 2020 The models introduced in this paper describe a uniform distribution of plant stems competing for sunlight. The shape of each stem, and the density of leaves, are designed in order to maximize the captured sunlight, subject to a cost for transporting water and nutrients from the root to all the leaves.

Potato crop growth as affected by nitrogen and plant density [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2000 Growth and development variables and dry matter characteristics were studied for cultivar Snowden of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) to evaluate nitrogen and plant density influence. Disregarding ending of season plant stress, the average number of actives

Stem Cells and Regeneration in Plants [PDF]
Nephron Experimental Nephrology, 2014 <b><i>Background:</i></b> Plants are characterized by indeterminate post-embryonic development that is evident, for example, in the continuous branching of shoots and roots. High competence to regenerate tissues is another consequence of such intrinsic developmental plasticity in plants.
