Auxin, one of the first identified and most widely studied phytohormones, has been and will
remain a hot topic in plant biology. After more than a century of passionate exploration, the …

In some horticultural crops, such as Cucurbitaceae, Solanaceae, and Rosaceae species,
fruit set and development can occur without the fertilization of ovules, a process known as …

The phytohormone auxin triggers transcriptional reprogramming through a well-
characterized perception machinery in the nucleus. By contrast, mechanisms that underlie …

Auxin has always been at the forefront of research in plant physiology and development.
Since the earliest contemplations by Julius von Sachs and Charles Darwin, more than a …

To respond to auxin, the chief orchestrator of their multicellularity, plants evolved multiple
receptor systems and signal transduction cascades. Despite decades of research, however …

The plant signaling molecule auxin is present in multiple kingdoms of life. Since its
discovery, a century of research has been focused on its action as a phytohormone. In land …

Extracellular perception of auxin, an essential phytohormone in plants, has been debated for
decades. Auxin-binding protein 1 (ABP1) physically interacts with quintessential …

The phytohormone auxin triggers root growth inhibition within seconds via a non-
transcriptional pathway. Among members of the TIR1/AFB auxin receptor family, AFB1 has a …

The plant hormone auxin governs many aspects of normal plant growth and development.
Auxin also plays an important role in plant–microbe interactions, including interactions …

Plant cell growth responds rapidly to various stimuli, adapting architecture to environmental
changes. Two major endogenous signals regulating growth are the phytohormone auxin …
