stem-cells

2 articles

Stem cells in plants are undifferentiated cells capable of indefinite self-renewal and differentiation into specialized cell types, serving as the foundation for all plant growth and development. In plants, these cells are maintained in specialized regions called meristems, where they drive the continuous production of new tissues and organs throughout a plant's life. Understanding how plant stem cell identity and activity are regulated has broad implications for crop improvement, regenerative agriculture, and fundamental developmental biology.
