CORKtheCAMBIA investigates the stem cells of cork cambium, a plant tissue responsible for thickening. The project aims to uncover the molecular mechanisms regulating these stem cells, using advanced genetic techniques and modeling to understand how cork and vascular cambia coordinate growth in plants.
Growth originates from meristems, where stem cells are located.
Lateral meristems, which provide thickness to tree stems and other plant organs, include vascular cambium (produces xylem [wood] and phloem); and cork cambium (forms cork, a tough protective layer).We recently identified the molecular mechanism that specifies stem cells of vascular cambium.
Unexpectedly, this same set of experiments revealed also novel aspects of the regulation of cork cambium, a meristem whose development has remai…
