The influence of electrical charge on plasmodesma conductivity
Summary
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 15, April 2026. SignificanceFor decades, it was believed that the hydrodynamic radius of a molecule is the defining factor for diffusion or convection through plasmodesmata between plant cells. Here, we show that positively charged molecules are excluded from narrow ...
