This collection summarizes recent research progress in the biogenesis of plant diffusion barriers such as the Casparian strip, suberin lamellae or the root exodermis. While primarily focused on root ...

We continue the amazing broader history of gaseous diffusion as envisioned by Gordon Fee and prepared by Steve Polston, who was at one time the manager of the Paducah (Ky.) Gaseous Diffusion Plant and ...

Scientists at the University of Helsinki discovered how plants heal their protective outer layer, the periderm. The diffusion of ethylene and oxygen through a wound triggers repair—a finding with ...
