Abstract
This article comments on: Petrova AA, Gorshkova TA, Kozlova LV. 2021. Gradients of cell wall nano-mechanical properties along and across elongating primary roots of maize. Journal of Experimental Botany 72, 1764–1781.
Highlights
HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not
One of the most intriguing is the biological process of plant growth and morphogenesis
This work is a landmark in understanding the cell wall chemistry and its relationship to growth and mechanics in monocotyledons.This study paved the way for future research to prioritize exploring the cell wall polymer architecture and organization in three dimensions and link it to the biomechanical characteristics
Summary
HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The growth process in plants depends on the cell wall expansion allowing cell enlargement.
