摘要：Like animals, plants use asymmetric cell divisions to create pattern and diversity. Due to a rigid cell wall and lack of cell migrations, these asymmetric divisions incur the additional constraints of being locked into their initial orientations. How do plants specify and carry out asymmetric divisions? Intercellular communication has been suspected for some time and recent developments identify these signals as well as point to segregated determinants and proteins with PAR-like functions as parts of the answer.
