This research aims to understand the role of vacuoles in plant cells, focusing on their function in nutrient transport and storage. By studying the genetic and regulatory mechanisms involved, the project seeks to enhance crop yield and nutritional value.
Occupying up to 90% of the volume of an individual cell, the vacuole is the most prominent compartment of the plant cell.
The plant vacuoles are responsible for the transport and accumulation of nutrients, carbohydrates and storage proteins, and their function directly impacts plant yield and nutritional value.
In plants, two types of vacuoles with different properties have been identified, the lytic vacuoles that carry out many of the same processes as yeast and mammalian lysosomes such as the…
