These meristems contain stem cells that divide as needed and form new cells that develop into specialised tissue. Using the example of plant roots, researchers from Freiburg have now been able to ...
Animal and plant cells have three main differences. They both have a nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane, but only plant cells have a cell wall, vacuole and chloroplasts. We used jelly to create an ...
Researchers at the University of Georgia have identified a promising approach to addressing a longstanding challenge for plant geneticists: balancing disease resistance and growth in plants.
Credit: Plant And Cell Physiology (2024). DOI: 10.1093/pcp/pcae103 When the stem of a plant is injured, the surrounding cells proliferate to repair and fuse the damaged tissue, eventually ...
A CONSIDERABLE amount of microscope work involved in cytological studies of plant roots can be obviated by the preparation of a cell suspension from a number of roots ; the cell suspension can ...
