Production of new cells as a result of progression through the cell division cycle is a fundamental biological process for the perpetuation of both unicellular and multicellular organisms. In the case of plants, their developmental strategies and their largely sessile nature has imposed a series of evolutionary trends. Studies of the plant cell division cycle began with cytological and physiological approaches in the 1950s and 1960s. The decade of 1990 marked a turn point with the increasing development of novel cellular and molecular protocols combined with advances in genetics and, later, genomics, leading to an exponential growth of the field. In this article, I review the current status of plant cell cycle studies but also discuss early studies and the relevance of a multidisciplinary background as a source of innovative questions and answers. In addition to advances in a deeper understanding of the plant cell cycle machinery, current studies focus on the intimate interaction of cell cycle components with almost every aspect of plant biology.
新细胞的产生是细胞分裂周期推进的结果，这是单细胞和多细胞生物延续的基本生物学过程。就植物而言，其发育策略和固着特性使其产生了一系列进化趋势。对植物细胞分裂周期的研究始于 20 世纪 50 年代和 60 年代的细胞学和生理学方法。20 世纪 90 年代是一个转折点，随着新的细胞和分子方案的不断发展，结合遗传学的进步，以及后来的基因组学的进步，该领域呈指数级增长。在本文中，我回顾了植物细胞周期研究的现状，但也讨论了早期的研究以及多学科背景作为提出创新性问题和答案的来源的相关性。除了对植物细胞周期机制的更深入理解的进展外，当前的研究还集中在细胞周期成分与植物生物学几乎各个方面的密切相互作用上。
