Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

Stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into more mature, specialised cells. Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent ...

Nucleus Control centre of the cell. It contains the cell’s genetic information arranged in chromosomes. Chromosomes Threadlike structure found in the nucleus. Made of DNA which contains the ...

Lam, Chundawat and their colleagues took cells from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana and stripped away their walls. Because certain environmental conditions can harm cells, the team used a special ...

Plant vs Animal Cells: Lysosomes Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that are found within cells. Their main role is to break down proteins, acids, large molecules, and unwanted materials ...

using living plant cells. This marks the first time the dynamic process of cell-wall construction has been observed in real time, offering critical insights that could lead to the development of more ...

The tobamoviral genome encodes proteins that have evolved to fulfill the main conceptual task of the viral infection cycle - the spread of the invading virus throughout the host plant cells, tissues, ...

If stem cells were able to multiply uncontrollably, this would lead to uncontrolled growth, as in the case of cancer. WOX5 is an important signaling molecule that regulates stem cells in the meristem.

Plant stem cells have gained remarkable attention in recent years for their regenerative properties and sustainability advantages. Unlike animal or human stem cells, plant stem cells are not burdened ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A novel fluorescent biosensor has been developed to detect RNA in plant cells, allowing real-time tracking of RNA and gene expression changes. This method ...

In April 2026, we are planning to publish a special issue on “ AI in Plant Phenotyping: From Cells to Fields” in the Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE-B (Biomedicine & Biotechnology), JZUS-B for ...
