All plant cells are encased in primary cell walls that determine plant morphology, but also
protect the cells against the environment. Certain cells also produce a secondary wall that …

We report the genome-wide analysis of direct target genes of SND1 and VND7, two
Arabidopsis thaliana NAC domain transcription factors that are master regulators of …

Background Maize stover is an important source of crop residues and a promising
sustainable energy source in the United States. Stalk is the main component of stover …

Properly patterned cell walls specify cellular functions in plants. Differentiating protoxylem
and metaxylem vessel cells exhibit thick secondary cell walls in striped and pitted patterns …

Abstract The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) trichome birefringence (tbr) mutant has
severely reduced crystalline cellulose in trichomes, but the molecular nature of TBR was …

Abstract ROPs (Rho of Plants) are plant specific small GTPases involved in many membrane
patterning processes and play important roles in the establishment and communication of …

Plant cell walls are versatile materials that can adopt a wide range of mechanical properties
through controlled deposition of cellulose fibrils. Wall integrity requires a sufficiently …

The formation of cell polarity is essential for many developmental processes such as polar
cell growth and spatial patterning of cell division. A plant-specific ROP (R ho-like GTPases …

Stomatal ontogenesis, patterning, and function are hallmarks of environmental plant
adaptation, especially to conditions limiting plant growth, such as elevated temperatures and …
