Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how stomatal patterns form in plant leaves, focusing on Arabidopsis embryos that utilize specific genetic and developmental factors for creating evenly spaced stomatal precursor cells.
- - Research across 36 plant species shows that this embryonic stomatal patterning is common among flowering plants, with a three-stage process involving broad SPCH expression, domain formation, and asymmetric cell division.
- - This embryonic patterning not only facilitates quick stomatal differentiation and photosynthetic efficiency after germination but also controls how additional stomata develop as the leaf grows, using regulatory mechanisms to manage cell fate transitions.
Background: Accurate diagnosis and early detection of complex diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, has the potential to be of great benefit for researchers and clinical practice. We aimed to create a non-invasive, accurate classification model for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, which could serve as a basis for future disease prediction studies in longitudinal cohorts.
Methods: We developed a model for disease classification using data from the Parkinson's Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) study for 367 patients with Parkinson's disease and phenotypically typical imaging data and 165 controls without neurological disease.
