In response to the spatiotemporal coordination of various biochemical reactions and membrane-encapsulated organelles, plants appear to provide another effective mechanism for cellular organization by phase separation that allows the internal compartmentalization of cells to form a variety of membrane-less organelles. Most of the research on phase separation has centralized in various non-plant systems, such as yeast and animal systems. Recent studies have shown a remarkable correlation between the formation of condensates in plant systems and the formation of condensates in these systems. Moreover, the last decade has made new advances in phase separation research in the context of plant biology. Here, we provide an overview of the physicochemical forces and molecular factors that drive liquid-liquid phase separation in plant cells and the biochemical characterization of condensates. We then explore new developments in phase separation research specific to plants, discussing examples of condensates found in green plants and detailing their role in plant growth and development. We propose that phase separation may be a conserved organizational mechanism in plant evolution to help plants respond rapidly and effectively to various environmental stresses as sessile organisms.
