A team of researchers led by Prof. Xiao Jun from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese ...

Plant cells without walls, known as protoplasts, are very fragile, and it has been difficult to keep them alive under a ...

Mitochondria close mitochondriaTiny parts of cells floating in the cytoplasm where energy is released from glucose. The glucose comes from food. This is how you make a model plant cell.

Imaging wall-less plant cells every six minutes for 24 hours revealed how the cells build their protective barriers.

By this definition, stem cells are particularly important for plant growth, because virtually all tissues of the plant descend from small groups of stem cells located in their growing apices ...

"Because duckweed is so small, it gives us a model to understand what every cell is doing at a given moment," Cox said. This ...

cell and developmental biology at UCLA, engineered the tobacco rattle virus to carry a compact CRISPR-like enzyme called ISYmu1 to target specific DNA sequences in the model mustard plant ...
