WRKY transcription factors had multiple functions in plant secondary metabolism, leaf
senescence, fruit ripening, adaptation to biotic and abiotic stress, and plant growth and …

Cotton fiber is a single-celled seed trichrome that arises from the epidermis of the ovule's
outer integument. The fiber cell displays high polar expansion and thickens but not is …

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fibers, vital natural textile materials, are single-cell trichomes
that differentiate from the ovule epidermis. These fibers are categorized as lint (longer fibers …

The placenta in fruits of most plants either desiccate and shrink as the fruits mature or
develop further to form the fleshy tissues. In poplars, placental epidermal cells protrude …

Gossypium barbadense is an important source of natural textile fibers, as is Gossypium
hirsutum. Cotton fiber development is often affected by various environmental factors, such …

Despite the adaptive and taxonomic relevance of the natural diversity for trichome patterning
and morphology, the molecular and evolutionary mechanisms underlying these traits remain …

Melastoma, consisting of~ 100 species diversified in tropical Asia and Oceania in the past 1-
2 million years, represents an excellent example of rapid speciation in flowering plants …

Protein–protein interaction (PPI) network analysis is an effective method to identify key
proteins during plant development, especially in species for which basic molecular research …
