    The research group of Wang Jiawei, Center for Excellence in Molecular Plant Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, systematically revealed the heterogeneity of rice root single cells, described the differentiation trajectory of rice root epidermal cells and basic tissue cells, and clarified gene expression and gene staining during root tip stem cell differentiation.


    Rice is one of the important food crops.


    The previous work of Wang Jiawei's research group described the root single-cell map of the dicotyledonous model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.


    Interestingly, the integration analysis of scRNA-seq and ATAC-seq shows that the chromatin open state of some important regulatory factors is temporally and spatially related to their gene expression patterns.


    At the same time, the researchers analyzed with the Arabidopsis root single-cell transcriptome data set and found that the two cell types are less conservative in evolution.


    Experts said that these research results helped us draw a single-cell map of rice roots, laying a good foundation for the future analysis of the fine process and molecular mechanism of rice root development, artificially customizing the root system, and improving nutrient absorption capacity.
