Functional morphological patterns in root apices of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) dependent on growth, ageing and infection by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus mosseae and/or by the ...

Plants maintain populations of pluripotent stem cells called shoot apical meristems (SAMs) throughout their lifetime. Shoot meristems function to generate morphologically complex body plans by the ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Pools of stem cells in the apical meristems of plants are key to continued growth and development. Understanding how these stem cells are maintained and balanced against ...

Rhizophores arise from angle meristems located at shoot branch points in many species of Selaginella and produce roots at their distal ends. We reinvestigated the origin and development of rhizophores ...
