Functional Complexity on a Cellular Scale: Why In Situ Analyses Are Indispensable for Our Understanding of Lignified Tissues

|
By Leonard Blaschek, Henrik Serk, Edouard Pesquet
| dx.doi.org
Lignins are a key adaptation that enables vascular plants to thrive in terrestrial habitats. Lignin is heterogeneous, containing upward of 30 different monomers, and its function is multifarious: It provides structural support, predetermined breaking points, ultraviolet protection, diffusion barriers, pathogen resistance, and drought resilience.

Confined-microtubule assembly shapes three-dimensional cell wall structures in xylem vessels - Nature Communications

|
By Takema Sasaki, Kei Saito, Yuki Sugiyama, Edouard Pesquet, Yuta Shimamoto, Henrik Serk
| Nature Verified
Abstract Properly patterned deposition of cell wall polymers is prerequisite for the morphogenesis of plant cells. A cortical microtubule array guides the two-dimensional pattern of cell wall deposition. Yet, the mechanism underlying the three-dimensional patterning of cell wall deposition is poorly understood. In metaxylem vessels, cell wall arches are formed over numerous pit membranes, forming highly organized three-dimensional cell wall structures.
