Abstract

Uncovering plant cell types and regulatory genes across species has long been a challenge. Writing in Cell, Xue et al. present single-cell atlases for six vascular plants and identify conserved “cell-type foundational genes.” These enable cross-species annotation, speeding up discoveries in plant and evolutionary biology and ultimately supporting crop improvement.

解码跨物种植物细胞类型：基因发现的蓝图

揭示植物细胞类型和跨物种调控基因一直是一个挑战。薛等人在Cell上发表了六种维管植物的单细胞图谱，并鉴定出保守的“细胞型基础基因”。这使得跨物种注释成为可能，加速了植物和进化生物学的发现，并最终支持作物改良。

期刊介绍： Developmental Cell, established in 2001, is a comprehensive journal that explores a wide range of topics in cell and developmental biology. Our publication encompasses work across various disciplines within biology, with a particular emphasis on investigating the intersections between cell biology, developmental biology, and other related fields. Our primary objective is to present research conducted through a cell biological perspective, addressing the essential mechanisms governing cell function, cellular interactions, and responses to the environment. Moreover, we focus on understanding the collective behavior of cells, culminating in the formation of tissues, organs, and whole organisms, while also investigating the consequences of any malfunctions in these intricate processes.
