Researchers Uncover Mechanism of Root Morphology Change and Thickening
15 Nov 2024The key to three-dimensional plant architecture lies in precise control over the orientation of cell division. Plant cells divide periclinally to grow radially—leading to thickening—while anticlinal division promotes longitudinal growth. This in...
