Before seedlings can photosynthesize, they depend on fatty acids—and on peroxisomes to process them. Researchers discovered ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

A newly discovered protein controls plant cell growth, helping seedlings develop and survive early growth stages.

From plant stems to bacterial shells, cell walls are far more than rigid barriers—they’re living, adapting structures.

A research team led by Potsdam-based bioinformatician Prof. Dr Zoran Nikoloski has developed a computational approach and an accompanying tool that enables the detailed analysis and reconstruction of ...

Arabidopsis plant with defective augmin (right and inset) does not grow compared to a control plant (left). Some weedkillers attack the augmin system. In plants, augmin is involved both in cell ...
