Background:Cotton fiber is a single-celled seed trichome that originates from the ovule epidermis.It is an excellent model for studying cell elongation.Along with the elongation of cotton fiber cell,the plasma membran...
In this project,we aim to elucidate the molecular mechanism controlling initiation and elongation of tetraploid Gossypium hirsutum fiber cells by setting up a high throughput custom-designed
Cotton fibers elongate rapidly after initiation of elongation, eventually leading to the deposit of a large amount of cellulose. To reveal features of cotton fiber cells at the fast elongation and the secondary cell w...
