Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are created and how their ...

The mechanism by which the plant hormone cytokinin controls cell division has been discovered - a breakthrough that significantly improves our understanding of how plants grow. Cell division is ...

A research team at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology has successfully combined single-cell RNA sequencing ...

Plant and Soil publishes original papers and review articles exploring the interface of plant biology and soil sciences, and offering a clear mechanistic component. This includes both fundamental and ...

DURHAM, N.C. -- The “deathbed rally,” the “last hurrah” -- it’s not unheard of for living things to mysteriously perk up in the moments before death. It turns out that plants do it too, at least at ...

In a recent Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) study, researchers analyze T-cell reactivity following recovery from the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Study: Transient and ...

Eva Gillis-Buck has recieved funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute James Gardner receives funding from the National Institutes of Health, the National Human Genome Research Institute, and ...

Banding patterns of cellulose increase the stability of plant cell walls, much like the corrugated patterns in cardboard. Penn State biologists developed a method to isolate plant cells and observe ...
