title: Morphogenesis on the move: cell-to-cell trafficking of plant regulatory proteins.
abstract: It has been shown recently that some plant transcription factors that regulate cell fate during development can traffic through plasmodesmata-the intercellular channels that connect plant cells. This phenomenon helps explain the non-autonomous effects of many developmental mutations in plants and defines a novel mechanism by which cells signal to each other during development.
