New insights into cell fates of the Arabidopsis inflorescence meristem @sebamorenor.bsky.social generated the most detailed map to date of this critical stem cell niche, identifying 18 distinct cell type clusters, including precursors to cortex & vascular tissues www.slcu.cam.ac.uk/news/new-ins...
Inflorescence meristem cell identities: (A) Force-directed graph layout of clusters associated with inner cell layers such as early primordia (EP), undifferentiated cells, procambium, xylem parenchyma and cortex. Clusters are represented by different colours. (B) Schematic illustration of selected cell identities in the primary stem and inflorescence meristem. Procambial strands arise in developing primordia and give rise to vascular bundles, which subsequently differentiate into phloem, cambium and xylem within the primary stem. The exact locations of cell identities in the primary stem are schematically represented rather than accurately portrayed. Illustration by first author first author Dr Sebastián Moreno-Ramírez.
