The researchers are using single-cell RNA sequencing to study Feronia within individual cells and cell types of Arabidopsis thaliana, a flowering plant commonly used in plant and genetic research.

But how then does a single-celled plant like Caulerpa grow without specialized cells communicating to guide the breaking of symmetry? "A main paradigm in cellular biology is that the internal ...

Recent breakthroughs in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA), such as the recently developed “RevGel-seq” method, has revolutionized plant cell analysis. This technique, independent of special ...
