Plant Secret Language
Plants have a secret language that scientists are only now starting to decipher.
Signals from the plant cell wall help to orchestrate growth, reproduction and immune function.
Plant cell walls, such as in these root cells, not only act as physical containers but also contribute to important signalling processes.
Can harnessing this molecular cross talk help in creating better crops?
When Robert Hooke gazed through his microscope at a slice of cork and coined the term ‘cell’ in 1665, he was really looking at just the walls of the dead cells.
