Marchantia polymorpha, a New Model Plant for Autophagy Studies

Autophagy is a catabolic process for bulk and selective degradation of cytoplasmic components in the vacuole/lysosome. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ATG genes were identified as essential genes for autophagy, and most ATG genes are highly conserved among eukaryotes, including plants. Although reverse...
