How robust three-dimension (3D) organ shape emerges during morphogenesis is a fundamental question in biology. Addressing this question requires a comprehensive quantification of organ geometry in 3D. To tackle these issues, we considered t...
Dynamics of homeostats: the basis of electrical, chemical, hydraulic, pH and calcium signaling in plants [0.03%]

Homeostats are important to control homeostatic conditions. Here, we have analyzed the theoretical basis of their dynamic properties by bringing the K homeostat out of steady state (i) by an electrical stimulus, (ii) by an external imbalanc...

Calcium ions (Ca2+) play pivotal roles in a host of cellular signalling processes. The requirement to maintain resting cytosolic Ca2+ levels in the 100-200 nM range provides a baseline for dynamic excursions from resting levels that determi...

In the current polycrisis era, plant science, particularly when applied to agronomy, becomes instrumental: because our main substantial and renewable resource is plant biomass, many future solutions will depend on our ability to grow and tr...

In 'The chemical basis of morphogenesis' (1952), Alan Turing introduced an idea that revolutionised our thinking about pattern formation. He proposed that diffusion could lead to the spontaneous formation of regular patterns. Here, we discu...
Microtubule flexibility, microtubule-based nucleation and ROP pattern co-alignment enhance protoxylem microtubule patterning [0.03%]

The development of the water transporting xylem tissue in plants involves an intricate interplay of Rho-of-Plants (ROP) proteins and cortical microtubules to generate highly functional secondary cell wall patterns, such as the ringed or spi...

Phosphorus (P) is a non-renewable resource that limits plant productivity due to its low bioavailability in the soil. Large amounts of P fertilizer are required to sustain high yields, which is both inefficient and hazardous to the environm...

Silicon (Si), the most abundant mineral element in soil, functions as a beneficial element for plant growth. Higher Si accumulation in the shoots is required for high and stable production of rice, a typical Si-accumulating plant species. D...
Quantitative analysis of the root posture of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with wavy roots [0.03%]

Plant postures are affected by environmental stimuli. When the gravitational direction changes, the Arabidopsis thaliana mutants myosin xif xik (xif xik) and atp-binding cassette b19 (abcb19) exhibit aberrantly enhanced organ bending. Wheth...
