OsKNAT7 bridges secondary cell wall formation and cell growth regulation
Plant Physiology, Plant Physiology: News and Views, ResearchThe plant cell wall is a complex structure composed of cellulose embedded in a matrix of polysaccharides (hemicellulose and pectin), phenolic compounds and proteins. The primary cell wall is a thin layer formed in growing cells and is present ubiquitously, whereas the secondary cell wall is a rigid and…
Arabidopsis OR Represses the Greening of Cotyledons while It Is in the Nucleus
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In a NutshellSun et al. showed that OR interacts with TCP14 in the nucleus of dark-germinated seedlings and reduces chlorophyll biosynthesis, thylakoid membrane development and expression of EARLY LIGHT-INDUCIBLE PROTEINS, and that subsequent illumination relieves this repression.

Essay: Reconstructing trait evolution in plant evo–devo studies (Curr. Biol.)
Plant Science Research WeeklyPlant evo-devo studies are thriving thanks to new genetic engineering tools and the emergence of model systems such as the moss Physcomitrella patens, the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, and the fern Ceratopteris richardii. In the past few years many debates have taken place among the community, in…
