Cellular and leaf structural traits influence the regulation of leaf water balance, which in turn impacts leaf gas exchange, plant productivity and drought tolerance. Yet, the role of cell wall ...

Plant leaves need a large surface area to capture sunlight for photosynthesis. Dr. Emanuele Scacchi and Professor Marja Timmermans from the Center for Plant Molecular Biology at the University of ...

The interplay between vascular development and leaf development is central to the evolutionary success of vascular plants, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we identify the ...
