Single-Cell Profiling Uncovers Plant Stem Cell Regulators Linked to Crop Yield

Published on: Developmental Cell (Elsevier)

Researchers used large-scale single-cell RNA sequencing in maize and Arabidopsis to recover rare shoot stem cells and identify hundreds of conserved regulators. These included RNA-binding proteins and sugar kinases that shape shoot development and influence yield traits. The study provides a powerful resource for crop engineering and highlights how stem cell biology can directly inform food and energy security.
