Plant cells build nanofibrillar walls that are central to plant growth, morphogenesis and
mechanics. Starting from simple sugars, three groups of polysaccharides, namely, cellulose …

Nitrate is the most abundant form of inorganic nitrogen in aerobic soils, serving both as a
nutrient and a signaling molecule. Central to nitrate signaling in higher plants is the intricate …

Root hairs tie the root system to the soil substrate, facilitate water and nutrient absorption,
and enable the interaction with microbes in the soil. Root hair development can be classified …

Plants are exposed to temperature conditions that fluctuate over different time scales,
including those inherent to global warming. In the face of these variations, plants sense …

Root hairs have become an important model system for studying plant growth, and in
particular how plants modulate their growth in response to cell-intrinsic and environmental …

The target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase is a central signaling hub that plays a crucial role in
precisely orchestrating plant growth, development, and stress responses. This suggests that …

Plants exposed to freezing and above-freezing low temperatures must employ a variety of
strategies to minimize fitness loss. There is a considerable knowledge gap regarding how …

The RAPID ALKALINIZATION FACTOR (RALF) peptides belong to the cysteinerich small
peptide family, they play essential roles in plant growth and development and biotic and …

During postharvest life, intracellular sugar insufficiency accompanied by insufficient
intracellular ATP and NADPH supply, intracellular ROS overaccumulation along with …

Abstract Changes in ambient temperature profoundly affect plant growth and performance.
Therefore, the molecular basis of plant acclimation to temperature fluctuation is of great …
