In a paper published on aBIOTECH, the authors used a symplastic tracing approach and ultrastructural observations to ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a ubiquitous organelle that plays roles in secretory protein production, folding, quality control, and lipid biosynthesis. The cortical ER in plants is pleomorphic ...
In WT, PDLP7 interacts with BG10 through its GnK2-1 domain to restrict BG10 from hydrolyzing callose. Free callose in the cell wall is deposited at the PD neck to maintain a dynamically balanced ...
Plasmodesmata are channels that allow cell-cell communication in plants; based on the functional similarities between facilitated transport within plasmodesmata and into the nucleus, the authors ...
When facing a volatile climate, nature searches for a way to survive. For plants, that often means spreading new roots deeper and wider in search of water, particularly in times of drought. While ...
Traffic lights signal to cars and buses when to stop, slow and go. Much like traffic lights, plant cells send signals to each other to perform photosynthesis to grow or fight off destructive viruses ...
To communicate with its neighbors, animal cells use gap junctions which are symplasmic connections through which molecules can diffuse from one cell to another. In higher plants, the communication ...
