An inter-university research group has succeeded in constructing the gene expression network behind the vascular development process in plants. They achieved this by performing bioinformatics analysis ...
Just like animals, plants are made of tiny little cells. Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a nucleus, a cell membrane and cytoplasm. They've also got a vacuole, chloroplasts and a cell wall, ...
When plants evolved a vascular system containing cells that facilitate the transport of water and nutrients, this not only allowed them to conquer land, but also provided the structural stability that ...
Abbreviations and technical remarks. -- The evolution of plant stems in the Earth's history -- The structure of the plant body -- Secondary growth: advantages and risks -- Modification of the stem ...
Researchers at the University of Helsinki have discovered a mechanism that allows plants to regulate the ratio of produced wood (i.e. xylem) and phloem. Both tissues are formed by the vascular cambium ...
Plant Physiology, Vol. 138, No. 2, Arabidopsis Special Issue (Jun., 2005), pp. 803-818 (16 pages) The growth of secondary xylem and phloem depends on the division of cells in the vascular cambium and ...
Transport in biology means carrying substance absorbed or made in the body of an organism to all other parts of its body. In plants, it is only water and minerals that need to be transported to its ...
