Abstract

ABSTRACT Plant de novo regeneration, a capacity absent in animals, relies on stem-cell-niche formation rather than pre-existing reservoirs. Growth hormones such as auxin and cytokinin, together with numerous genetic regulators, participate in regeneration, but the architectural principles coordinating extensive cellular reprogramming at the individual-cell scale remain elusive. Using super-resolution multimodal spatial transcriptomics to 1.16 million cells, we tracked tomato regeneration across temporal intervals from wounding to organogenesis.
