- Intervention effect Boron deficiency induced TCH4 expression.
- Observation TCH4 knockout lines were more resistant to low boron stress than wild-type Col-0.
- Association TCH4 upregulation altered the ratio of chelator-soluble to alkali-soluble pectin under boron deficiency.
- Association TCH4 upregulation decreased pectin methylesterification under boron deficiency.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency disturbed cellulose arrangement.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency enlarged the gap between cellulose microfibrils.
- Intervention effect Boron deficiency decreased cell wall mechanical strength.
- Observation Boron deficiency produced a thickened, deformed triangular cell wall region.
- Observation Cell wall symptoms under boron deficiency were more profound in TCH4 overexpression lines.
- Observation Under boron deficiency, TCH4 overexpression lines had increased O2− content compared with Col-0.
- Observation Under boron deficiency, TCH4 overexpression lines had increased MDA content compared with Col-0.
- Mechanism The authors identify boron deficiency induced TCH4 as a regulator of cell wall homeostasis and plant growth.
