The stomatal precursor cell uses autocrine peptide-receptor kinase signaling to self-inhibit its differentiation potential in order to ensure proper stomatal development on the plant epidermis.
Radial plant growth produces large parts of terrestrial biomass and can be computationally simulated with the help of an instructive framework of intercellular communication loops.
A single-cell RNA sequencing reveals cell heterogeneity of secondary metabolism in tea plant root and a proposed model in which the theanine biosynthesis pathway occurs via multicellular compartmentation.

A new biophysical model enables the reconciliation of ultrastructural and tissue level measurements on parameters affecting intercellular communication, and provides novel functional insight into experimental findings.
