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 ...
Root apical meristem is the region within the growing root containing meristematic cells. At the heart of the root apical meristem are the cells of the quiescent centre. This study reveals that mobile ...
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 ...
Some species of Cactaceae from the Sonoran Desert are characterized by a determinate growth pattern of the primary root, which is important for rapid lateral-root formation and seedling establishment.
A sophisticated mechanism that allows plant roots to quickly respond to changes in soil conditions has been identified by an international research team. Scientists from the John Innes Centre and ...
