Abstract. This review summarizes recent progress in our current understanding of the mechanisms underlying the cell death pathways in bryophytes, focusing
Leria et al. show that mechanical cues trigger Ca²⁺-dependent, coordinated, and fast
reorientation of the ciliary basal bodies in Trichoplax. This enables swift changes
in ciliary beat direction and t...

In this review, Lakehal et al. chart the evolution of root systems, discussing key
innovations in root morphology and the regulatory mechanisms that enabled land plants
to adapt. They argue that crop ...

Chemical probes + imaging can reveal spatiotemporal patterns of a wide range of physico-chemical features in plants, without the need for genetic access.
We reviewed what tools exist and how they can be used & engineered.
Chemistry meets plant cell biology!
