Plasmodesmata wall biomechanics: challenges and opportunities. [PDF]

J Exp Bot
Plant cell walls exist as a complex and varied blend of polysaccharides and proteins; the combination of which has evolved over millions of years.

Do Plasmodesmata Play a Prominent Role in Regulation of Auxin-Dependent Genes at Early Stages of Embryogenesis?

Cells, 2021
Plasmodesmata form intercellular channels which ensure the transport of various molecules during embryogenesis and postembryonic growth. However, high permeability of plasmodesmata may interfere with the establishment of auxin maxima, which are required ...

Multicellularity and the Need for Communication—A Systematic Overview on (Algal) Plasmodesmata and Other Types of Symplasmic Cell Connections

Plants, 2023
In the evolution of eukaryotes, the transition from unicellular to simple multicellular organisms has happened multiple times. For the development of complex multicellularity, characterized by sophisticated body plans and division of labor between ...

Palmitoylation Is Indispensable for Remorin to Restrict Tobacco Mosaic Virus Cell-to-Cell Movement in Nicotiana benthamiana

Viruses, 2022
Remorin (REM) is a plant-specific plasma membrane-associated protein regulating plasmodesmata plasticity and restricting viral cell-to-cell movement.

The Pathogenesis-Related Protein 4b Induced by Rice Stripe Virus Enhances Host's Antiviral Defence. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
OsPR4b is induced by RSV to inhibit viral infection via regulating RNA metabolism and cell wall reinforcement, while its knockdown modulates NAC/MYB/ERF/WRKY family genes and enhances viral accumulation. ABSTRACT Rice stripe virus (RSV) causes rice stripe disease, which poses a serious threat to rice production.

StREM1.3 REMORIN Protein Plays an Agonistic Role in Potyvirus Cell-to-Cell Movement in N. benthamiana

Viruses, 2022
REMORIN proteins belong to a plant-specific multigene family that localise in plasma membrane nanodomains and in plasmodesmata. We previously showed that in Nicotiana benthamiana, group 1 StREM1.3 limits the cell-to-cell spread of a potexvirus without ...

Arabidopsis plasmodesmal proteome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The multicellular nature of plants requires that cells should communicate in order to coordinate essential functions. This is achieved in part by molecular flux through pores in the cell wall, called plasmodesmata.

The Role of Callose Deposition Along Plasmodesmata in Nematode Feeding Sites

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2010
Infective second-stage juveniles of the obligate plant-parasitic root-knot and cyst nematodes invade plant roots to induce specialized feeding structures.

Trafficking and localization of KNOTTED1 related mRNAs in shoot meristems

Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2022
Multicellular organisms use transcripts and proteins as signaling molecules for cell-to-cell communication. Maize KNOTTED1 (KN1) was the first homeodomain transcription factor identified in plants, and functions in maintaining shoot stem cells.

The plasmodesmal protein PDLP1 localises to haustoria-associated membranes during downy mildew infection and regulates callose deposition [PDF]

, 2014
The downy mildew pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa) is a filamentous oomycete that invades plant cells via sophisticated but poorly understood structures called haustoria.
