Unveiling REF1: A key regulator of plant regeneration
Plant Science Research WeeklyPlants 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.…
Sealing the deal to graft healing: PAT1 as a novel regulator of graft formation
Plant Science Research WeeklyGrafting is a way to combine the desirable properties of two plants by joining the scions and rootstocks from different plants. While frequently practiced, little is known about how grafting within and between coniferous species works. Most pertinently, grafting success relies on how efficiently connected…
