Missing the beginning of the film. The film explores the structure and function of plant and animal cells using a microscope. It begins with observing onion cells, highlighting their components such ...

Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are created and how their ...

Imagine if our bodies could grow new organs throughout our entire lives. Plants do this constantly, thanks to tiny, powerful reservoirs of stem cells. But how do these cells know when to divide, and ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

Bruce Kohorn, Bowdoin's Linnean Professor of Biology and Biochemistry, has published a new paper on plant cell wall adhesion with a string of coauthors—all of them recent Bowdoin students. The article ...

A new method developed by Penn State biologists allows them to turn stripped-down plant cells into other types of cells, ...
