Potyviruses (viruses in the genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) constitute the largest group
of known plant-infecting RNA viruses and include many agriculturally important viruses that …

Multicellularity has emerged multiple times in evolution, enabling groups of cells to share a
living space and reducing the burden of solitary tasks. While unicellular organisms exhibit …

In recent years, mass spectrometry-based proteomics has provided scientists with the
tremendous capability to study plants more precisely than previously possible. Currently …

Plant viruses have evolved efficient mechanisms to move cell-to-cell through
plasmodesmata (PD) for systemic infection. Potyviruses including many economically …

Expansins facilitate cell expansion by mediating pH-dependent cell wall (CW) loosening.
However, the role of expansins in controlling CW biomechanical properties in specific …

The cell wall is a complex and integral part of the plant cell. As a structural element it
sustains the shape of the cell and mediates contact among internal and external factors. We …

Potyviruses represent the largest group of known plant RNA viruses and include many
agriculturally important viruses, such as Plum pox virus, Soybean mosaic virus, Turnip …

Plasmodesmata (PD) are essential for intercellular trafficking of molecules required for plant
life, from small molecules like sugars and ions to macromolecules including proteins and …

Exonuclease-mediated RNA decay in plants is known to be involved primarily in
endogenous RNA degradation, and several RNA decay components have been suggested …

During multicellularization, plants evolved unique cell-cell connections, the plasmodesmata
(PD). PD of angiosperms are complex cellular domains, embedded in the cell wall and …
