The plant cell wall is an interface of plant–microbe interactions. The ability of microbes to
decompose cell wall polysaccharides contributes to microbial pathogenicity. Plants have …

Polar callose deposition into the extracellular matrix is tightly controlled in time and space.
Its presence in the cell wall modifies the properties of the surrounding area, which is …

The evolutionary features and molecular innovations that enabled plants to first colonize
land are not well understood. Here, insights are provided through our report of the genome …

Polar cell growth in plants requires a cell peripheral region that undergoes membrane
extension and cell wall remodeling. Since the 1990s, RHO‐RELATED GTPASES FROM …

Plant cell walls display cellular and subcellular specificities. At the subcellular level, wall
regional territories with specific compositions are necessary for macroscopic developmental …

Abstract Manganese (Mn2+) is essential for a diversity of processes, including
photosynthetic water splitting and the transfer of glycosyl moieties. Various Golgi-localized …

Research in angiosperm sexual reproduction is among the most classical botanical studies
with a rich knowledge base. The introduction of molecular tools since the late 1970s …

Pollen tube (PT) serves as a vehicle that delivers male gametes (sperm cells) to a female
gametophyte during double fertilization, which eventually leads to the seed formation. It is …

In flowering plants, pollen tubes undergo a journey that starts in the stigma and ends in the
ovule with the delivery of the sperm cells to achieve double fertilization. The pollen cell wall …

A wide range of proteins with diverse functions in development, defense, and stress
responses are O-arabinosylated at hydroxyprolines (Hyps) within distinct amino acid motifs …
