UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- A plant cell wall's unique ability to expand without weakening or breaking--a quality required for plant growth--is due to the movement of its cellulose skeleton, according to ...
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 ...
ITHACA, N.Y. -- The wall of a plant cell is no longer just a biological bulwark. It is a critical component in science. To update other biologists with fresh information about plant cell walls, ...
Plant cell walls have a special ability to expand without breaking or weakening, which is crucial for plant growth. New research has shown that the cellulose skeleton of the plant cell wall is what ...
Chinese scientists have identified a key mechanism that governs the function of plant stem cells — cells that enable plants ...
Artistic rendering of cellulose regenerating on a plant protoplast cell surface with zoomed out view. Cellulose is synthesized by plasma membrane-bound enzyme complexes (green) and assembles into a ...
