Stem cell protection is key to proper plant development. The root cap tissue performs this task by enclosing delicate stem cells in the root meristem and consists of columella cells at the tip and lat...

Dynamic hormone networks orchestrate Arabidopsis root meristem growth. In this review, Nittis et al. highlight recent advances in how these regulatory systems shape root development and discuss their ...

Telomeres are pivotal determinants of cell stemness, organismal aging, and lifespan. Herein, we examined similarities in telomeres of Arabidopsis thaliana, mice, and humans. We report the common trait...
