🔬3D Cell segmentation of the shoot apical meristem (SAM) of maize🌽in top/side view was analyzed by Dr Cecilia Lara Mondragon from the University of Tübingen.
💡The SAM consists of pluripotent stem cells that determine the cell number and position of all lateral organs during plant shoot development.

💡 Plant embryogenesis is the process by which embryos develop from the fertilized zygote, involving the establishment of apical-basal polarity, meristem initiation, and lateral organ formation.
