Plants are subjected to various environmental stresses throughout their life cycle. Reactive
oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in maintaining normal plant growth, and …

The maintenance of the stem cell niche in the shoot apical meristem, the structure that
generates all of the aerial organs of the plant, relies on a canonical feedback loop between …

Despite the importance of stem cells in plant and animal development, the common
mechanisms of stem cell maintenance in both systems have remained elusive. Recently, the …

Mitochondria and autophagy play important roles in the networks that regulate plant leaf
senescence and cell death. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are initially considered to be toxic byproducts of aerobic
metabolic reactions. However, increasing evidence has shown that they have emerged as …

Background Quiescence is a fundamental feature of plant life, which enables plasticity,
renewal and fidelity of the somatic cell line. Cellular quiescence is defined by arrest in a …

Plant stem cells are the foundation of plant growth and development. The balance of
quiescence and division is highly regulated, while ensuring that proliferating cells are …

Plants retain the ability to produce new organs throughout their life cycles. Continuous
aboveground organogenesis is achieved by meristems, which are mainly organized …

Arabis alpina is a polycarpic perennial, in which PERPETUAL FLOWERING1 (PEP1)
regulates flowering and perennial traits in a vernalization‐dependent manner. Mutagenesis …

Plants are developmentally disposed to significant changes in oxygen availability, but our
understanding of the importance of hypoxia is almost entirely limited to stress biology …
