Cell-material interactions in 3D bioprinted plant cells

This study optimizes 3D bioprinting parameters for plant cells, showing improved viability in Tobacco BY-2 and Arabidopsis root protoplasts under phosphate starvation.

Quantitative Modeling of the Short-Term Response to Nitrogen Availability that Coordinates Early Events in Lateral Root Initiation

The paper uses transcriptomic data and single-cell profiling to identify transcription factors involved in early lateral root development in response to nitrogen availability.

Establishing a reproducible approach for the controllable deposition and maintenance of plants cells with 3D bioprinting

This study establishes a 3D bioprinting framework for plant cells to study viability, division, and identity, showing long-term cell survival and cell cycle re-entry.

Gene regulatory networks for compatible versus incompatible grafts identify a role for SlWOX4 during junction formation

The paper identifies SlWOX4 as a key regulator in tomato grafting by comparing gene regulatory networks of compatible and incompatible grafts.

Protein complex stoichiometry and expression dynamics of transcription factors modulate stem cell division

The paper models SHR-SCR complex stoichiometry and regulation to explain differences in division timing between QC and CEI in Arabidopsis root stem cells.

Early mannitol-triggered changes in the Arabidopsis leaf (phospho)proteome

The paper analyzes early proteome and phosphoproteome changes in Arabidopsis under mild mannitol stress and identifies AHA2 and CRRSP38 as novel regulators of shoot growth under osmotic stress.
