Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 58, No. 13 (2007), pp. 3731-3742 (12 pages) Xylem parenchyma cells (XPCs) in larch adapt to subfreezing temperatures by deep supercooling, while cortical ...
Freezing behavior of wood tissue of red osier dogwood (Cornus sericea L.) cannot be explained by current concepts of freezing resistance. Previous studies indicated that water in wood tissue ...
Leaf vasculature plays a pivotal role in nutrient transport and leaf morphology. A new study in Brassica rapa reveals the developmental trajectories of vascular tissues in Chinese cabbage using single ...
Xylem vessel pits are tiny openings on the cell wall of water-conducting cells—with pit geometry influencing crop yield through its effect on plant hydraulics and nitrogen transport. Researchers from ...
