Jan Martinek is currently a PhD student in plant cell biology at Charles University of Prague in the Czech Republic. His research focuses on the actin cytoskeleton and plant cell growth and ...

Researchers from the University of Freiburg have identified the HAN molecule as an important regulator that controls plant growth in conjunction with WOX5. Understanding this mechanism is relevant for ...

Plant regeneration relies on a delicate balance between stem cell renewal and differentiation, yet the evolutionary origin and functional limits of key regulators remain poorly understood. This study ...

Left: A blue light pulse of 0.1 seconds triggers a calcium signal (red) in guard cells, which is followed by an anion current (black). Right: The influx of calcium into the cell promotes the release ...

It is our great pleasure to announce that Medicinal Plant Biology has been included in Web of Science: Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI). This inclusion represents global recognition by the ...
