Emerging roles of small GTPases in secondary cell wall development [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Regulation of plant cell wall deposition and patterning is essential for the normal growth and development of plants. Small GTPases play pivotal roles in the modulation of primary cell wall formation by controlling cytoskeletal organization and membrane ...

Molecular mechanisms for vascular development and secondary cell wall formation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Vascular tissues are important for transporting water and nutrients throughout the plant and as physical support of upright growth. The primary constituents of vascular tissues, xylem and phloem, are derived from the meristematic vascular procambium and ...

TCP24 modulates secondary cell wall thickening and anther endothecium development

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
miR319-targeted TCP genes are believed to regulate cell division in leaves and floral organs. However, it remains unknown whether these genes are involved in cell wall development. Here, we report that TCP24 negatively regulates secondary wall thickening

Mutations of the secondary cell wall

open access: yesPlant Molecular Biology, 2001
It has not been possible to isolate a number of crucial enzymes involved in plant cell wall synthesis. Recent progress in identifying some of these steps has been overcome by the isolation of mutants defective in various aspects of cell wall synthesis ...

Pectic galactan affects cell wall architecture during secondary cell wall deposition [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta, 2020
Despite recent advances regarding the role of pectic β-(1,4)-galactan neutral side chains in primary cell wall remodelling during growth and cell elongation, little is known about the specific function of this polymer in other developmental processes. We

An Arabidopsis gene regulatory network for secondary cell wall synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2014
The plant cell wall is an important factor for determining cell shape, function and response to the environment. Secondary cell walls, such as those found in xylem, are composed of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin and account for the bulk of plant ...

The role of the secondary cell walls in plant resistance to pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plant resistance to pathogens relies on a complex network of constitutive and inducible defensive barriers. The plant cell wall is one of the barriers that pathogens need to overcome to successfully colonize plant tissues.

The roles of the cytoskeleton during cellulose deposition at the secondary cell wall [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2008
During secondary cell wall formation, developing xylem vessels deposit cellulose at specific sites on the plasma membrane. Bands of cortical microtubules mark these sites and are believed to somehow orientate the cellulose synthase complexes.

Diffusion in intact secondary cell wall models of plants at different equilibrium moisture content. [PDF]

open access: yesCell Surf, 2023
Secondary plant cell walls are composed of carbohydrate and lignin polymers, and collectively represent a significant renewable resource. Leveraging these resources depends in part on a mechanistic understanding for diffusive processes within plant cell ...

FvNST1b NAC Protein Induces Secondary Cell Wall Formation in Strawberry. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 2022
Secondary cell wall thickening plays a crucial role in plant growth and development. Diploid woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca) is an excellent model for studying fruit development, but its molecular control of secondary wall thickening is largely ...
