Unveiling REF1: A key regulator of plant regeneration

/in /by

Plants frequently encounter damage during growth and development, necessitating remarkable regenerative abilities to repair damaged tissues. Plants can regenerate organs or even entire plants from callus or a single cell, a capacity underpinning asexual reproduction and various biotechnological applications. While numerous studies have investigated the plant regenerative response triggered by damage, the nature of the […]

Key regulators of juvenile-to-adult phase change

/in /by

The precise control of cell division orientation drives plant 3D structure formation, enabling radial and longitudinal growth. The SPL pathway is closely linked to age-related processes in the shoot, driving the vegetative transition from juvenile to adult phases by regulating specific morphological and molecular traits. Similarly, in the root apical meristem (RAM), SPL transcription factors […]
