Plant cells without walls, known as protoplasts, are very fragile, and it has been difficult to keep them alive under a ...

The team recorded 24 hours of the cellular construction process, revealing surprising new details about how plant cell walls ...

The microscope-generated video images show protoplasts—cells with their walls removed—of cabbage's cousin, the flowering plant Arabidopsis, chaotically sprouting filaments of cellulose fibers ...

Imaging wall-less plant cells every six minutes for 24 hours revealed how the cells build their protective barriers.

RECENTLY I have examined several samples of cast plasticized secondary cellulose acetate sheet material under the microscope. With crossed nicols a uniform yellow polarization colour was shown ...

The microscope-generated video images show protoplasts -- cells with their walls removed -- of cabbage's cousin, the flowering plant Arabidopsis, chaotically sprouting filaments of cellulose ...

To make the cells fluorescent and detectable by the microscope, he and his team developed a probe derived from an engineered bacterial enzyme that binds specifically to cellulose.

In a discovery with potential practical applications, a team of Rutgers biophysicists, bioengineers and plant biologists capture first live images In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of ...
