TL;DR: expression analysis following inoculation with fungal pathogens, showed that five genes were induced in either stem or leaves, adding further evidence that CAD/CAD-like genes have evolved specialised functions in plant development and defence against various pest and pathogens.

TL;DR: Compared to fibrous roots, rapid development of transport capacity in pioneer roots is not primarily caused by accelerated xylogenesis but by larger and more numerous tracheary elements and by rapid initiation of secondary growth.

TL;DR: The organelle-specific physiology in and gene medleys during stress-induced barley leaf senescence are reversible prior to terminal programmed cell death phase and the mega-autophagy symptoms were apparent much later, specifically on day 10 of DILS, when disruption of organelles—nucleus and mitochondria —became evident.

TL;DR: It has been demonstrated that a small percentage decrease in relative humidity can cause irreparable changes in membrane permeability, as well as in nuclear structure and microtubule cytoskeleton stability.

TL;DR: The carinal canals in E. ramosissimum have a distinctive lining containing pectic homogalacturonan, cellulose, xyloglucan and extensin, which might function as water-conducting channels which would be especially important during the elongation of the internodes when protoxylem is disrupted and the metaxylesm is not yet differentiated.
