Abstract
The molecular mechanism of the maintenance and differentiation of plant stem cells is an eternal theme in studies on plant growth and development. Recent advances in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods have completely changed the understanding of cell heterogeneity and cell function, allowing research precision to identify the differentiation trajectory of stem cells maintained and differentiated at the cellular level. This review aimed to mainly discuss the novel insights provided by scRNA-seq for the maintenance and initiation of plant stem cells, cell differentiation, cell response to environmental changes, and improvement strategies for scRNA-seq. In addition, it highlighted additional perspectives beyond scRNA-seq, such as spatial transcriptomes, epigenomes, and single-cell multiomics, for a renewed understanding of stem cell maintenance and cell differentiation, thus providing potential targets and theoretical foundations for crop improvement.
