Subcellular and supracellular mechanical stress prescribes cytoskeleton behavior in Arabidopsis cotyledon pavement cells
Although it is a central question in biology, how cell shape controls intracellular dynamics
largely remains an open question. Here, we show that the shape of Arabidopsis pavement …

Mechanochemical polarization of contiguous cell walls shapes plant pavement cells
The epidermis of aerial plant organs is thought to be limiting for growth, because it acts as a
continuous load-bearing layer, resisting tension. Leaf epidermis contains jigsaw puzzle …
