Plant cell walls are a critical site where plants and pathogens continuously struggle for physiological domi-nance.Here we show that dynamic remodeling of pectin methylesterification of plant cell walls is a compo-nen...

Most organisms adjust their development according to the environmental conditions.For the majority,this implies the sensing of alterations to cell walls caused by different cues.Despite the relevance of this process,f...

During anther development,the transformation of the microspore into mature pollen occurs under the pro-tection of first the tetrad wall and later the pollen wall.Mutations in genes involved in this wall transition oft...

Apoplastic iron(Fe)in roots represents an essential Fe storage pool.Reallocation of apoplastic Fe is of great importance to plants experiencing Fe deprivation,but how this reallocation process is regulated remains elu...
To accommodate two seemingly contradictory biological roles in plant physiology, providing both the rigid structural support of plant cells and the adjustable elasticity needed for cell expansion, the composition of t...

Cell wall biosynthesis is indispensable for pollen tube growth. Despite its importance to sexual reproduction, the molecular mechanisms of pollen tube wall biosynthesis remain poorly understood. Here, we report functi...
The plant cell wall is composed of a matrix of cellulose fibers, flexible pectin polymers, and an array of as- sorted carbohydrates and proteins. The receptor-like Wall-Associated Kinases (WAKs) of Arabidopsis bind ...
The seed coat is important for embryo protection, seed hydration, and dispersal. Seed coat composition is also of interest to the agricultural sector, since it impacts the nutritional value for humans and livestock al...
Plant cell walls are complex structures that offer structural and mechanical support to plant cells and are ultimately responsible for plant architecture and form. Pectins are a large group of complex polysaccharides ...
The Arabidopsis phosphoinositide kinases PI4Kβ1 and PIP5K5 have been implicated in the control of directional vesicle trafficking underlying polar tip growth in pollen tubes. PI4Kβ1 and PIP5K5 catalyze key consecuti...
