Plasmodesmata the Nano Bridges in Plant Cell: Are the Answer for All the Developmental Processes?

Plants establish tiny, cellular signaling pathways playing a unique coordination role in growth and development. Plasmodesmata are playing a central role in the formation of domain, which regulates the cellular network and trafficking of molecules required to create gradient for physiological and de...

Description
Summary:Plants establish tiny, cellular signaling pathways playing a unique coordination role in growth and development. Plasmodesmata are playing a central role in the formation of domain, which regulates the cellular network and trafficking of molecules required to create gradient for physiological and developmental processes. The plasmodesmal trafficking provides a novel tool for studying the informational molecules to control the processes such as embryo development, root nodule formation, flower development and stomata growth and differentiation, and other cellular differentiation. Finally, comprehensive role of plasmodesmata as nano bridges for communication in signaling within plant tissue is detailed. This review paper highlights the developmental processes that are tightly coordinated by plasmodesmata and the role of molecular signals that explains how these are altered.
