Cell size of proliferating plant cells increases with temperature: implications in the control of cell division.

Abstract:

:As chemical reactions related to the regulation of cell proliferation are governed by availability, amount, and concentration of relevant molecules, it has been suggested that cell size is an important factor in the control of cell cycle. We have measured the size of proliferating cells of Allium cepa roots in which growth rate was modified by changes in growth temperature. Two independent cell size parameters have been measured by cytophotometry: cell surface area projection and cell protein content. Average cell sizes of both the proliferating cell population and the subpopulation at the end of mitosis show that cell size increases with growth rate. Calculation of cell size at initiation of DNA replication clearly indicates that average cell size at this point is not growth invariant but positively correlated with growth rate.
