For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Leaves are the primary plant organs responsible for photosynthesis. Their size, shape and angles — all affected by cell patterning and growth — can also expose more of their ...

Research probing the secret of how some single plant cells can regenerate into whole plants will benefit from a new culture protocol developed by RIKEN scientists 1. Some plants naturally possess the ...

One of the most fundamental differences between animal and plant cells is the cell wall—a rigid structure surrounding the plant cells. The cell wall provides strength and structural support, but it ...

Researchers take a big step in showing efficacy of bioprinting plant cells to study cellular communication and viability in a controlled environment. A new study from North Carolina State University ...

For the first time, Chinese scientists have fully revealed how a single plant somatic cell develops into a complete plant. This achievement not only solves the century-old mystery of the mechanism ...
