When lacking certain enzymes that help plants coordinate cell division, Arabidopsis thaliana cells grow and collect multiple nuclei.

A compound produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa activates signaling pathways that prevent seeds from growing in unfavorable environments.

Images from the country’s Chang’e-4 lunar lander show the first sprouting plants.

During plants’ cell division, mother cells give daughter cells a signal to show them which way is up.

The European Union says no thanks.

An entrepreneurial attitude helped this Vienna-based researcher begin to unravel the complex receptor network that Arabidopsis uses to develop and defend itself.

To maintain an energy-saving growth strategy in the absence of light, seedlings need signals generated by pectin in their cell walls.

It has become increasingly evident that, like animals, plants are not autonomous organisms but rather are populated by a cornucopia of diverse microorganisms.

Plants have so much to teach us.
