- Title
Dynamics and mechanics of plant cell walls: insights into plant growth, defence, and stress response.

- Abstract
The article discusses the dynamics and mechanics of plant cell walls and their importance in plant growth, defense, and stress response. The composition, structure, and mechanical characteristics of plant cell walls play a crucial role in providing physical support, defining cell shape and volume, facilitating cell communication and transport, and acting as a barrier against pathogen infection. The article highlights several studies that explore the specific roles of cell wall components in processes such as stomatal movement, tissue regeneration, cell cycle progression, pathogen-plant interactions, and modulation of abiotic stresses. The research in this field is ongoing and requires the development of new technologies for in-depth studies.
