Special issue: Cell polarity and development
Editor: Remko Offringa and Jürgen Kleine-Vehn
Cover Caption: About the cover: This special issue of JIPB highlights several aspects of plant cell polarity. Cell polarity is important for PIN FORMED (PIN) efflux carrier-driven polar transport of the plant hormone auxin. Coordinated tissue-specific PIN orientations result in auxin minimum formation during Arabidopsis fruit development (Right top; Grieneisen et al., pp. 847–863). In plant leaves, polar localization of PIN1 in files of vascular cells suggests auxin transport toward pre-existing vasculature (Left and right middle; Sawchuk and Scarpella, pp.824–834). Coordinated polar cell growth in the root epidermis gives rise to files of smaller and bigger cells (Right bottom, Löfke et al., pp. 864–875). [Detail] ...For Selected: Toggle Thumbnails
