Promotion of testa rupture during garden cress germination involves seed compartment-specific expression and activity of pectin methylesterases

Promotion of testa rupture during garden cress germination involves seed compartment-specific expression and activity of pectin methylesterases

Pectin methylesterase (PME) controls the methylesterification status of pectins and thereby determines the biophysical properties of plant cell walls, which are important for tissue growth and weakening processes. We demonstrate here that tissue-specific and spatiotemporal alterations in cell wall p...
