Molecular mechanisms of leaf morphogenesis

F Du, C Guan, Y Jiao - Molecular plant, 2018 - cell.com
Plants maintain the ability to form lateral appendages throughout their life cycle and form
leaves as the principal lateral appendages of the stem. Leaves initiate at the peripheral zone …

Anisotropic expansion of the plant cell wall

TI Baskin - Annu. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol., 2005 - annualreviews.org
Plants shape their organs with a precision demanded by optimal function; organ shaping
requires control over cell wall expansion anisotropy. Focusing on multicellular organs, I …

Developmental Patterning by Mechanical Signals in Arabidopsis

O Hamant, MG Heisler, H Jonsson, P Krupinski… - science, 2008 - science.org
A central question in developmental biology is whether and how mechanical forces serve as
cues for cellular behavior and thereby regulate morphogenesis. We found that …

Why plants make puzzle cells, and how their shape emerges

A Sapala, A Runions, AL Routier-Kierzkowska… - Elife, 2018 - elifesciences.org
The shape and function of plant cells are often highly interdependent. The puzzle-shaped
cells that appear in the epidermis of many plants are a striking example of a complex cell …

[HTML][HTML] Mechanical stress acts via katanin to amplify differences in growth rate between adjacent cells in Arabidopsis

M Uyttewaal, A Burian, K Alim, B Landrein… - Cell, 2012 - cell.com
The presence of diffuse morphogen gradients in tissues supports a view in which growth is
locally homogenous. Here we challenge this view: we used a high-resolution quantitative …

Elastic domains regulate growth and organogenesis in the plant shoot apical meristem

D Kierzkowski, N Nakayama, AL Routier-Kierzkowska… - Science, 2012 - science.org
Although genetic control of morphogenesis is well established, elaboration of complex
shapes requires changes in the mechanical properties of cells. In plants, the first visible sign …

Cell division plane orientation based on tensile stress in Arabidopsis thaliana

M Louveaux, JD Julien, V Mirabet… - Proceedings of the …, 2016 - National Acad Sciences
Cell geometry has long been proposed to play a key role in the orientation of symmetric cell
division planes. In particular, the recently proposed Besson–Dumais rule generalizes …

Arabidopsis TCP20 links regulation of growth and cell division control pathways

C Li, T Potuschak, A Colón-Carmona… - Proceedings of the …, 2005 - National Acad Sciences
During postembryonic plant development, cell division is coupled to cell growth. There is a
