Molecular Mechanisms Driving Bistable Switch Behavior in Xylem Cell Differentiation

The paper models the molecular mechanisms of bistable switching in xylem cell differentiation using whole root and single-cell data, identifying VND7's role and a novel regulatory cycle.

High-throughput single-cell transcriptome profiling of plant cell types

The paper uses Drop-seq to profile over 4,000 single cells from Arabidopsis root tissue, identifying cell types and gene expression changes during endodermis development.
