The paper shows that anionic fluorescent dyes up to 1 kDa pass through plasmodesmata while smaller cationic ones do not, suggesting plasmodesmal pores may have positive charges.

This study investigates carbon allocation in cassava by analyzing phloem loading and sub-cellular transport in storage roots, finding a predominantly passive symplasmic mechanism.

The paper develops an AI tool for quantifying ultrastructural traits from 3D microscopic datasets and improves fixation protocols for plants.

This study identifies BK2L3, a COBRA family gene, as essential for cell wall formation and carbohydrate partitioning in maize, linking cellulose deposition to phloem function and plant growth.

This paper demonstrates a wheat-germ cell-free protein expression pipeline that generates high-purity proteins for structural biology analysis.
