Analysis of a novel mutant allele of GSL8 reveals its key roles in cytokinesis and symplastic trafficking in Arabidopsis [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2018 Background Plant cell walls are mainly composed of polysaccharides such as cellulose and callose. Callose exists at a very low level in the cell wall; however, it plays critical roles at different stages of plant development as well as in defence against

Gatekeepers and Gatecrashers of the Symplasm: Cross-Kingdom Effector Manipulation of Plasmodesmata in Plants [PDF]
PlantsPlasmodesmata (PD) are dynamic nanochannels interconnecting plant cells and coordinating development, nutrient distribution, and systemic defense. Their permeability is tightly regulated by callose turnover, PD-localized proteins, lipid microdomains, and

Tracking of plasmodesmata localization with the use of fluorescently labelled VAP27 protein [PDF]
BIO Web of Conferences, 2023 Plasmodesmata play a crucial role in plant development processes, biotic and abiotic stress responses. The thick space inside of a plasmodesma between the plasma membrane and desmotubule is tethered by spoke-like elements.

Callose homeostasis at plasmodesmata: molecular regulators and developmental relevance [PDF]
, 2014 Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined channels that are located in the plant cell wall and that physically interconnect the cytoplasm and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of adjacent cells.

BMC Biology, 2022 Background A major route for cell-to-cell signalling in plants is mediated by cell wall-embedded pores termed plasmodesmata forming the symplasm. Plasmodesmata regulate the plant development and responses to the environment; however, our understanding of

Intercellular signaling across plasmodesmata in vegetable species
Vegetable Research, 2023 The formation of edible organs and stress adaption are two major focuses of the studies on vegetable species. The regulation of these two processes often involves cell-to-cell signaling.

The Enigma of Interspecific Plasmodesmata: Insight From Parasitic Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Parasitic plants live in intimate physical connection with other plants serving as their hosts. These host plants provide the inorganic and organic compounds that the parasites need for their propagation.
