Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2001, 98:11812-11817. The localised expression of an expansin in the meristem suffices to produce an entire ectopic leaf. The results show that local changes in cell wall extensibility can trigger, through feedback mechanisms, the series of events that lead to the formation of a leaf.

A mutant that has constitutively expressed stress response genes surprisingly turns out to carry a mutation in the cellulose synthase catalytic subunit CESA3. The constitutive stress responses, which involve both jasmonic acid and ethylene signaling, are caused by reduced cellulose synthesis observed in this mutant and in wild-type plants treated with inhibitors of cellulose synthesis. These findings demonstrate the existence of mechanisms that monitor cell wall integrity and that activate stress responses in plants.

Wall-associated kinases (WAKs) bind pectin and extensins in the cell wall, and have a transmembrane domain and a cytosolic kinase. They are thus good candidates for feedback signaling molecules. The authors of this paper show, through the inducible expression of an anti-sense construct in Arabidopsis, that at least one WAK is essential for cell elongation. The cell wall changes in this mutant have not yet been characterized.

27. Vogel JP, Raab TK, Schiff C, Somerville SC: PMR6, a pectate lyase-like gene required for powdery mildew susceptibility in Arabidopsis. Plant Cell 2002, 14:2095-2106. A mutation in a putative pectate lyase, an enzyme that hydrolyses pectins, leads to a pleiotropic phenotype that involves reduced cell size and increased resistance to powdery mildew in Arabidopsis. This resistance does not involve ethylene or jasmonic acid signaling. Comparison of the FT-IR spectra of mutants and wild-type plants suggests that the mutant has altered pectins. The mutant is fully susceptible to Pseudomonas and Peronospora, indicating that the putative pectate lyase is specifically required for compatible interactions with powdery mildew.

Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2002, 99:9055-9060. Xyloglucan oligosaccharides, which are integrated into cell walls through the action of the grafting enzyme xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase, promote cell elongation in isolated pea segments. In contrast, larger xyloglucan chains inhibit elongation. Hence, it is conceivable that xyloglucans contribute to the control of cell elongation in vivo.

The authors of this paper describe the first arabinogalactan protein (AGP) mutant with a clearly defined phenotype. These mutant plants have increased sensitivity to salt stress, which causes the swelling of the cells in the elongation zone of the root. The wall architecture of these cells is perturbed and the plasma membrane is frequently detached from the wall. This AGP may play a role in the adhesion of the plasma membrane to the wall.

Plant Cell 2003, in press. The authors present a procedure for the classification of Arabidopsis cell wall mutants that is based on FT-IR microspectroscopy. Mutants for various cell wall polymers could be distinguished on the basis of spectra obtained from a 50 x 50 μm area of the hypocotyl. This method has great potential for the characterisation of cell walls in mutants and during normal plant development.
