Abstract
Plant morphogenesis largely depends on the orientation and rate of cell division and elongation, and their coordination at all levels of organization. Despite recent progresses in the comprehension of pathways controlling division plane determination in plant cells, many pieces are missing to the puzzle. For example, we have a partial comprehension of formation, function and evolutionary significance of the preprophase band, a plant-specific cytoskeletal array involved in premitotic setup of the division plane, as well as the role of the nucleus and its connection to the preprophase band of microtubules. Likewise, several modeling studies point to a strong relationship between cell shape and division geometry, but the emergence of such geometric rules from the molecular and cellular pathways at play are still obscure. Yet, recent imaging technologies and genetic tools hold a lot of promise to tackle these challenges and to revisit old questions with unprecedented resolution in space and time.
