Cells reprogramming to stem cells inhibit the reprogramming of adjacent cells in the moss Physcomitrella patens

Abstract Under certain circumstances differentiated cells can be reprogrammed to form stem cells in land plants, but only a portion of the cells reprograms successfully. A long-distance inhibitory signal from reprogrammed cells to surrounding cells has been reported in some ferns. Here we show the e...
