The phytohormones auxin and cytokinin interact to regulate many plant growth and
developmental processes. Elements involved in the biosynthesis, inactivation, transport …

Auxin is arguably the most important signaling molecule in plants, and the last few decades
have seen remarkable breakthroughs in understanding its production, transport, and …

Plants maintain the ability to form lateral appendages throughout their life cycle and form
leaves as the principal lateral appendages of the stem. Leaves initiate at the peripheral zone …

Abstract Background and Aims The architecture of a plant depends on the nature and
relative arrangement of each of its parts; it is, at any given time, the expression of an …

A central question in developmental biology is whether and how mechanical forces serve as
cues for cellular behavior and thereby regulate morphogenesis. We found that …

The plant growth regulator auxin controls cell identity, cell division and cell expansion. Auxin
efflux facilitators (PINs) are associated with auxin maxima in distal regions of both shoots …

Auxin signalling involves the activation or repression of gene expression by a class of auxin
response factor (ARF) proteins that bind to auxin response elements in auxin‐responsive …

The plant hormone auxin is thought to provide positional information for patterning during
development. It is still unclear, however, precisely how auxin is distributed across tissues …

Angiosperm leaves manifest a remarkable diversity of shapes that range from
developmental sequences within a shoot and within crown response to microenvironment to …

Early leaf growth is sustained by cell proliferation and subsequent cell expansion that
initiates at the leaf tip and proceeds in a basipetal direction. Using detailed kinematic and …
