Non-cell autonomous and spatiotemporal signalling from a tissue organizer orchestrates root vascular development (2021)
Journal Article
Yang, B. J., Minne, M., Brunoni, F., Plačková, L., Petřík, I., Sun, Y., Nolf, J., Smet, W., Verstaen, K., Wendrich, J. R., Eekhout, T., Hoyerová, K., Van Isterdael, G., Haustraete, J., Bishopp, A., Farcot, E., Novák, O., Saeys, Y., & De Rybel, B. (2021). Non-cell autonomous and spatiotemporal signalling from a tissue organizer orchestrates root vascular development. Nature Plants, 7(11), 1485-1494. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41477-021-01017-6

During plant development, a precise balance of cytokinin is crucial for correct growth and patterning, but it remains unclear how this is achieved across different cell types and in the context of a growing organ. Here we show that in the root apical... Read More about Non-cell autonomous and spatiotemporal signalling from a tissue organizer orchestrates root vascular development.

Cauliflower fractal forms arise from perturbations of floral gene networks (2021)
Journal Article
Azpeitia, E., Tichtinsky, G., Le Masson, M., Serrano-Mislata, A., Lucas, J., Gregis, V., Gimenez, C., Prunet, N., Farcot, E., Kater, M. M., Bradley, D., Madueño, F., Godin, C., & Parcy, F. (2021). Cauliflower fractal forms arise from perturbations of floral gene networks. Science, 373(6551), 192-197. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abg5999

Throughout development, plant meristems regularly produce organs in defined spiral, opposite, or whorl patterns. Cauliflowers present an unusual organ arrangement with a multitude of spirals nested over a wide range of scales. How such a fractal, sel...
