- Cell walls are essential structures that contribute significantly to plant growth and development. They provide structural support, protect the plant from external damage and pathogens, and play a crucial role in plant reproduction. Without cell walls, plants would struggle to survive and thrive in their respective environments.

Dec 15, 2023 · Growing plant cells assemble a strong yet extensible nanofibrillar structure on their surface, the primary cell wall, which physically limits cell growth and defines cell size and shape.
Oct 6, 2021 · Plant cell walls have multiple functions, including determining cell shape and size, cell–cell adhesion, controlling cell differentiation and growth, and promoting abiotic and biotic stress tolerance.

The plant cell wall has a crucial role in any aspect of a plant’s life cycle and, as a result, cell wall research touches all aspects of plant biology (Keegstra, 2010). New and exciting work on cell wall research is constantly being published that has refined and sometimes even challenged the way we see cell wall biosynthesis and functions.
Jul 10, 2021 · The relative independence of expansive and structural growth manifests at the cellular scale, where structural growth and biomass change are linked to the incorporation of material into the pecto-cellulosic cell wall, while expansive growth is related to cell wall loosening.

Feb 1, 2024 · We predict the next century of progress will include deciphering cell type–specific wall polymers; regulation at all levels of polymer production, crosslinks, and architecture; and how walls respond to developmental and environmental signals to drive plant success in diverse environments.
Dec 13, 2018 · Plant cell walls are a source of oligosaccharide fragments with a signaling function for both development and immunity. Sensing cell wall damage, sometimes through the perception of released damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), is crucial for some developmental and immunity responses.
However, the plant cell wall is the least understood cellular structure in plants. Due to great progress in plant functional genomics, many achievements have been made in uncovering cell wall biosynthesis, assembly, and architecture, as well as cell wall regulation and signaling.
