Our group has been pioneering the understanding of phloem development and vascular meristem, (pro)cambial, function in plants. Using the information derived from analysis of Arabidopsis phloem ...

Our group is studying the development of vascular cambium by using Arabidopsis thaliana root as a model. Vascular cambium produces xylem (wood) and phloem, and together with the cork cambium, which ...

Plant development is the process by which structures ... Their quantitative modulation is required to guide phloem initiation and differentiation. A sugar transporter OsSTP28 is identified as ...

Phloem Sieve tubes Transport products of photosynthesis, including sugars and amino acids, from the leaf to where they are needed. Companion cells Provide the energy required for transporting ...
