Article Synopsis
- The study explores how lateral root primordia (LRP) can be transformed into shoot meristems without forming callus structures, highlighting a unique identity switch in plants.
- This conversion process begins with a temporary halt in cell division and involves different expressions of root and shoot development regulators, specifically requiring apical stem cells and targeting LRP at certain developmental stages.
- By manipulating auxin and cytokinin levels, researchers discovered that the developmental pathways for root and shoot can interchangeably switch back and forth within specific growth periods, showcasing significant flexibility in plant stem cell functions.
