Stem cells self-renew and give rise to cells that are differentiated during development. These differentiated cells can change into stem cells under appropriate conditions in most plants, in which ...

Stem cell research is a hot topic. With applications for a host of human medical advancements, researchers have been working with animal and human stem cells for years. But animals aren’t the only ...

A professor of plant molecular biology wants people to know that plants have stem cells too. Just like in the medical world, plant stem cells could support human growth and development when used to ...

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 ...

Researchers from the University of Freiburg have identified the HAN molecule as an important regulator that controls plant growth in conjunction with WOX5. Understanding this mechanism is relevant for ...

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the behaviour of stem cells in plants and animals is surprisingly similar. The researchers were able to produce mathematical equations that reveal ...
