“This suggests that the actual polarity in the embryo isn’t fixed until late in development, and that offers us an opportunity to change the fate of the plant structure.” ...

The establishment of cell polarity is essential for plant growth and development. The process involves biochemical cues and mechanical changes. Here the authors review the establishment of ...

Plant cell polarity as the nexus of tissue mechanics and morphogenesis The establishment of cell polarity is essential for plant growth and development.

This polarity likely contributes to a taut cell structure and provides a mechanical force so that the embryo forms its characteristic torpedo-shaped body.

Revealing mechanisms that govern cell polarity in plants and its importance for both hormonal signaling and development Career stages ...

Scientists Identify Genes Key To Differentiating Top From Bottom In Plant Leaves Date: June 12, 2001 Source: University Of Pennsylvania Summary: Biologists at the University of Pennsylvania and ...

The unwillingness to have uncomfortable discussions is the result of the growing polarity in our society, in which knowledge of valid opposing ideas has waned.

However, boron is often scarce in soil, particularly in arid regions, making passive absorption impossible. To combat this, plants have evolved proteins that actively transport boron from the soil ...
