Ubiquitous yet unique, lipid droplets are intracellular organelles that are increasingly being
recognized for their versatility beyond energy storage. Advances uncovering the intricacies …

Lipid droplets, also known as oil bodies or lipid bodies, are plant organelles that
compartmentalize neutral lipids as a hydrophobic matrix covered by proteins embedded in a …

With the emergence of high‐throughput methods in plant biology, the importance of long‐
term projects characterized by incremental advances involving multiple laboratories can …

Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the most important caloric source with respect to energy
homeostasis in animals. In addition to its evolutionarily conserved importance as an energy …

Adverse climatic conditions at the time of flowering severely hinder crop yields and threaten
the interactions between plants and their pollinators. These features depend on a common …

Lipid droplets (LDs) store neutral lipids in their core as an energy source when nutrients are
scarce. The center of an LD is hydrophobic, and hence it is surrounded by a phospholipid …

The world is hungry for energy. Plant oils in the form of triacylglycerol (TAG) are one of the
most reduced storage forms of carbon found in nature and hence represent an excellent …

Plant oils represent an energy-rich and carbon-dense group of hydrophobic compounds.
These oils are not only of economic interest, but also play important, fundamental roles in …

Lipid droplets (LDs) are organelles that compartmentalize nonbilayer-forming lipids in the
aqueous cytoplasm of cells. They are ubiquitous in most organisms, including in animals …

Intracellular lipid droplets are utilized for lipid storage and metabolism in organisms as
evolutionarily diverse as animals, fungi, plants, bacteria, and archaea. These lipid droplets …
