Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 46, No. 282 (JANUARY 1995), pp. 19-25 (7 pages) DNA synthesis in cell nuclei and organelles in the root apical meristem of rice was analysed by anti-BrdU ...

International Journal of Plant Sciences, Vol. 165, No. 1 (January 2004), pp. 97-105 (9 pages) Root apical meristem (RAM) organization was characterized in a wide range of dicotyledonous angiosperms ...

The key to three-dimensional plant architecture lies in precise control over the orientation of cell division. Plant cells divide periclinally to grow radially—leading to thickening—while anticlinal ...

Mutations drive evolution, but they can also be risky. New research led by plant biologists at the University of California, Davis, published Nov. 10 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ...

Plant stem cells, as in animals, are maintained in specialized microenvironments, which are known as stem cell niches, where local signals from organizer cells act to prevent stem cell differentiation ...

As global temperatures continue to rise, extreme heatwaves pose a significant threat to agricultural productivity. Studies estimate that for every 1°C increase above pre-industrial levels, crop yields ...
