Cadmium (Cd) speciation dynamics during vascular transport in peanut plants remain poorly defined. This study combined 113Cd isotope tracing with multiple separation techniques and targeted mass ...

Researchers led by Maike Sander, Scientific Director of the Max Delbrück Center, have developed a vascularized organoid model of hormone secreting cells in the pancreas.

Microplastics can also travel to and enter the plant’s water- and nutrient-transporting system (called the vascular bundle) and from there reach other tissues.

ABSTRACT: Maize, an expanding grain crop in Bangladesh, faces high food and feed demand. However, domestic output is insufficient to meet demand, necessitating exports from other countries. Developing ...

Research highlights the importance of plant stem cells in growth and stability. By overexpressing the HVA gene, Wang’s lab increased vascular bundles in plants, improving their strength and resistance ...

The HVA gene controls cell division in vascular stem cells, which are responsible for producing the vascular bundles that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. Overexpressing this gene ...

Purdue University plant scientists have identified a protein that plays a previously unknown role in controlling cell differentiation and determining gender in vascular plants, using a fern model. The ...

Understanding how these cells work can significantly contribute to a more robust food supply. For years, Wang’s lab has been dedicated to unraveling the mechanisms behind plant stem cells, ...

Wang's lab has been working with plant stem cells for years trying to understand how they control their stem cells, specifically the stem cells that give rise to vascular bundles -- the structures ...

Yun Zhou is an associate professor of botany and plant pathology at Purdue University. His collaborative research uncovers a new mechanism that regulates stem cell differentiation in vascular ...

This study suggests that the protein expression of embryonic stem cell reprogramming factors is enriched in benign as well as malignant vascular tumors.
