This study characterizes the structure and function of the Arabidopsis callose synthase complex, revealing its trimeric architecture and molecular mechanisms of callose synthesis.

The paper identifies three homeodomain zinc-finger transcription factors that repress cambium activity in Arabidopsis by inhibiting auxin, cytokinin, and TDIF-PXY target genes.

This study determines the molecular structure of the TPLATE complex and shows its structural flexibility is essential for membrane deformation during plant endocytosis.

The paper identifies a mechanism in plants where clathrin-coated vesicles are selectively degraded via autophagy during osmotic stress to maintain membrane tension and cell integrity.
