Regrowing the damaged or lost body parts.

Plants display extraordinary ability to revive tissues and organs lost or damaged in injury. This is evident from the root tip restoration and classical experiments in stem demonstrating re-establishment of vascular continuity. While recent studies have begun to unravel the mechanistic understanding of tissue restoration in response to injury in underground plant organs, the molecular mechanisms of the same in aerial organs remain to be ventured deeper. Here, we discuss the possibility of unearthing the regulatory mechanism that can confer universal regeneration potential to plant body and further provide a comprehensive understanding of how tissue and organ regeneration gets triggered in response to mechanical injury and later gets terminated after re-patterning and regaining the appropriate size.
