This project explores how cell polarity is established in the spore cell of Marchantia polymorpha, focusing on the mechanisms that direct the formation of the plant's body axis. It combines genetic and imaging techniques to uncover these processes.
The polarity of the single cell from which many organisms develop determines the polarity of the body axis.
However, the polarity of these single cells is often inherited.
For example, zygote polarity is inherited from the polarized egg cell of Arabidopsis thaliana.
By contrast, polarity is not pre-set in the spore cell that forms the Marchantia polymorpha (Marchantia) plant.
An environmental cue – directional light – polarises the spore cell which, in turn, directs the formation of the first…
