New study suggests pectin and cellulose involved in molecular mechanism defining plant cell morphology
The discovery of the mechanics and molecular mechanism that dictate cell shape formation in plants by a team of 海角社区 researchers offers new clues about the fundamental processes governing tissue formation in multicellular organisms.
Plants are made of cells that come in a wide array of shapes and sizes, each of which is closely related and essential to the function of a specific tissue.
