This project investigates how mechanical signals influence plant cell shape and development. By combining experimental methods and modeling, it aims to understand the integration of mechanical and genetic factors in plant morphogenesis, with implications for agricultural practices.
Specific cell and tissue form is essential to support many biological functions of living organisms.
During development, the creation of different shapes fundamentally requires the integration of genetic, biochemical and physical mechanisms.In plant, a stiff pecto-cellulosic network encapsulates cells and counterbalances stress created by turgor pressure inside the cell, thereby controlling cell shape.
It is well established that the cytoskeletal microtubules network play a key role in the morph…
