The Arabidopsis root has been the subject of intense research over the past decades. This
research has led to significantly improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms …

A plant's roots system determines both the capacity of a sessile organism to acquire
nutrients and water, as well as providing a means to monitor the soil for a range of …

Brassica species, including crops such as cabbage, turnip and oilseed, display enormous
phenotypic variation. Brassica genomes have all undergone a whole-genome triplication …

Vascular tissues in plants are crucial to provide physical support and to transport water,
sugars and hormones and other small signalling molecules throughout the plant. Recent …

The decade since the publication of the third edition of this volume has been an era of great
progress in biology in general and the plant sciences in particular. This is especially true …

Auxin influences plant development through several distinct concentration-dependent
effects 1. In the Arabidopsis root tip, polar auxin transport by PIN-FORMED (PIN) proteins …

Auxin is a crucial growth regulator that governs plant development and responses to
environmental perturbations. It functions at the heart of many developmental processes, from …

Plant growth regulators (PGR) and biostimulants are known to regulate plant growth and
development, boost plant metabolism, and enhance nutrient uptake, resulting in healthier …

Peptide signaling presumably occupies a central role in plant development, yet only few
concrete examples of receptor-ligand pairs that act in the context of specific differentiation …

Cell polarity is a key feature in the development of multicellular organisms. For instance,
asymmetrically localized plasma-membrane-integral PIN-FORMED (PIN) proteins direct …
