Specialised plant cells include root hair cells, palisade cells, xylem cells and phloem cells. Just like animals, plants are made of tiny little cells. Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a ...

Reconstruction of a plant cell (xylem) with its cellulose fibers labeled red (left). The center reconstruction shows the orientation of each cellulose fiber, with orientation indicated by color.

Xylem conduits begin as a series of living ... which are outgrowths produced by living plant cells surrounding a vessel to seal it off after wounding or pathogen invasion (Figure 8).

might also contribute to SL production and play essential roles in plant physiology. “By using this microbial cell factory, you can bypass extracting tons of xylem sap and thus destroying dozens of ...

We study genes that contribute to cell division activity in vascular cambium, the meristem between xylem (wood) and phloem ... a Principal Investigator/Group Leader at BI and Professor of Plant ...
