Plants achieve the continuous growth of organs through the initiation and maintenance of meristems that populate the plant body. Plants contain two apical meristems, one at the shoot and one root, to produce the lateral organs of the shoot and the cell files of the root, respectively. Additional meristems within the plant produce branches while others produce the cell types within the vasculature system. Throughout development, plants must balance producing organs and maintaining their meristems, which requires tightly controlled regulations. This review focuses on the various plant meristems, how cells within these meristems maintain their identity, and particularly the molecular players that regulate stem cell maintenance. In addition, we summarize cell types which share molecular features with meristems, but do not follow the same rules regarding maintenance, including pericycle and rachis founder cells. Together, these populations of cells contribute to the entire organogenesis of plants.}, number={2}, journal={CRITICAL REVIEWS IN PLANT SCIENCES}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Schwartz, Michael F. and Peters, Rachel and Hunt, Aitch M. and Abdul-Matin, Abdul-Khaliq and Broeck, Lisa and Sozzani, Rosangela}, year={2021}, month={Mar}, pages={147–156} }

In this review, we provide a background into the adoption of hydrogel encapsulation methods in the study of mammalian cells, highlight some key findings that may aid with the adoption of similar methods for the study of plant cells, including the potential challenges and considerations, and discuss key findings of studies that have utilized these methods in plant sciences.}, journal={BioDesign Research}, author={Krishnamoorthy, Srikumar and Schwartz, Michael F. and Broeck, Lisa Van and Hunt, Aitch and Horn, Timothy J. and Sozzani, Rosangela}, year={2021}, month={Dec} }
