Using a novel technique called scRNA-seq, scientists were able to identify and characterise the major cell types in the root-tip of the maize crop, along with their developmental pathways and many ...

An artistic fusion of spatial transcriptomic landscapes from longitudinal and transverse rice root sections. Colours indicate distinct cell types, while dots represent detected mRNA molecules, ...

Scientists have developed a toolbox of transcriptional regulators for plants and show that they can be used to construct synthetic genetic circuits that predictably modify root growth. Their work is ...

The developmental regulators that confer the identity of N-fixing root nodules belong to a transcription factor family (LSH) more commonly associated with defining the shapes of stems, flowers and ...
