Biologists have discovered how cytokinin activates stem cell division in plants. The mechanism by which the plant hormone cytokinin controls cell division has been discovered -- a breakthrough that ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Pools of stem cells in the apical meristems of plants are key to continued growth and development. Understanding how these stem cells are maintained and balanced against ...

Plant meristems represent specialised tissues housing pluripotent stem cells that underpin continuous growth and organ formation. The intricate regulation of these stem cells is mediated by a complex ...

When it comes to stem cell management, all flowering plants work to maintain the same status quo. Researchers have now identified the various strategies plants use to preserve a single, essential ...
