Plants are in contact with diverse pathogens and microorganisms. Intense investigation over
the last 30 years has resulted in the identification of multiple immune receptors in model and …

Rapid development of high-throughput single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq)
technologies offers exciting opportunities to reveal new and rare cell types, previously …

Single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-sequencing technologies capture the expression of
plant genes at an unprecedented resolution. Therefore, these technologies are gaining …

Differentiation of stem cells in the plant apex gives rise to aerial tissues and organs.
Presently, we lack a lineage map of the shoot apex cells in woody perennials–a crucial gap …

The evolution of the plant vascular system is a key process in Earth history because it
enabled plants to conquer land and transform the terrestrial surface. Among the vascular …

Single-cell genomics technologies are ushering in a new research era. In this review, we
summarize the benefits and current challenges of using these technologies to probe the …

Maize develops separate ear and tassel inflorescences with initially similar morphology but
ultimately different architecture and sexuality. The detailed regulatory mechanisms …

Plant meristems require a constant supply of photoassimilates and hormones to the dividing
meristematic cells. In the growing root, such supply is delivered by protophloem sieve …

In plants, the phloem distributes photosynthetic products for metabolism and storage over
long distances. It relies on specialized cells, the sieve elements, which are enucleated and …

Transcriptional networks are crucial to integrate various internal and external signals into
optimal responses during plant growth and development. In Arabidopsis thaliana, primary …
