We have investigated the capability of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to penetrate the cell wall and cell membrane of intact plant cells. Confocal fluorescence images revealed the cellular ...

The advent of fluorescent proteins and access to modern imaging technologies have dramatically accelerated the pace of discovery in plant cell biology. Remarkable new insights into such diverse areas ...

According to the researchers, the findings also deepen fundamental understanding of how plant cell walls are formed. The discovery is the result of more than six years of interdisciplinary ...

bioengineers and plant biologists capture first live images In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose – a major constituent of all plant cell walls – a team of Rutgers University-New ...

“We see the first large-scale plants as, say, 50,000 liters, but down the road it could go bigger. Plant cell culture has already been proven commercially at 75,000-liter scale.” Food Brewer is ...

Phytoplasma uses SAP54 protein to alter plant defences Female insects prefer infected plants with male presence Parasite transmission linked to plant-insect interactions ...

On Monday, GM said it will sell back its investment in the plant, which has not yet opened, to its Ultium Cells joint venture partner LG Energy Solution. The move is in line with what GM CEO Mary ...

traditional opaque pots can keep you from realizing there is even a problem until your plant is nearly dead. Clear pots, on the other hand, give you a direct look at your plants' roots and soil at any ...

Animal and plant cells have different energy-producing structures inside them. For animals, that’s mitochondria , which convert chemical energy from food into a form that our cells can use.

The Würzburg plant scientists were right: when they inhibited calcium storage in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cell, the calcium transient and the subsequent reaction failed to materialise.

Animal and plant cells have three main differences. They both have a nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane, but only plant cells have a cell wall, vacuole and chloroplasts. We used jelly to create an ...
