Abstract

Cell or cytodifferentiation marks the structural and physiological development of cells sequestering from mitotic cycles and acquiring specific functions within a plant. This process is sometimes also referred to as cell maturation. Cytodifferentiation has been the subject of general botany for generations, but recently seems to fade from textbooks (cf. Esau, 1965, Salisbury and Ross 1985, Strasburger et al., 1991, Eschrich, 1995), since it has triggered little experimentation to analyze its nature. Rather, a modern molecular approach is needed to substantiate the significance of cytodifferentiation or maturation.
