Imaging wall-less plant cells every six minutes for 24 hours revealed how the cells build their protective barriers.
In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose—a major constituent of all plant cell walls—a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers have captured images of the microscopic ...
In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls allow plants to have rigid structures as varied as wood trunks and ...
A plant cell wall is arranged in layers and contains cellulose microfibrils, hemicellulose, pectin, lignin, and soluble protein. These components are organized into three major layers: the primary ...
A three-judge panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a district court decision in the lawsuit filed by the father of Barrett Riley, who lost control of the 2014 Tesla Model S in May ...
