Flavobacterium sp. 98 promotes root hair development and enhances plant drought tolerance via a novel signalling pathway, highlighting the role of plant–microorganism interactions for improving crop r...

Plant development depends on coordinated growth at cellular and organ scales, yet comparative analyses are hindered by inconsistent reporting of growth across studies. We conducted a meta-analysis o.....

Chez les plantes, les cellules ne peuvent ni se déplacer ni se réorganiser librement en raison de leur paroi rigide.

The ability to generate genomic diversity expands opportunities for understanding and engineering biology. Here, we demonstrate on-demand generation of diversity in bacterial genome configurations and...

Diffuse cell expansion mainly in the longitudinal axis of the organ significantly contributes to root organ growth. Root cell expansion is a diverse, …

Abstract. B-Box-containing zinc finger transcription factors (BBX) are involved in light-mediated growth, affecting processes such as hypocotyl elongation

Gascon and Goldy, et al. uncover a PPB-independent mechanism, placing division sites near a tricellular junction. Simulations suggest cell wall elastic energy guides this positioning. Disrupting mecha...

Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a major portion of plant genomes and play key roles in shaping genome architecture, regulating gene expression, and driving genome evolution. In this study, we g...

The UK Plant Biomechanics conference is a one-day, in-person event that will showcase recent advances in research of the biomechanics of plants - from mechano-cell and developmental biology to structu...

Root hair (RH) cells can elongate to several hundred times their initial size, and are an ideal model system for investigating cell size control. Their development is influenced by both endogenous a.....

In an attempt to address the large inequities faced by the plant biology communities from the Global South (i.e. countries located around the tropics and the Southern Hemisphere) at international conf...
