Auxin is a crucial phytohormone that has various effects on the regulators of plant growth
and development. Auxin signal transduction is mainly controlled by two gene families: auxin …

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 …

The interaction between auxin and cytokinin is important in many aspects of plant
development. Experimental measurements of both auxin and cytokinin concentration and …

The plant hormone auxin is certainly the most studied developmental regulator in plants.
The many functions of auxin during development, from the embryo to the root and shoot …

Stone cells are often present in pear fruit, and they can seriously affect the fruit quality when
present in large numbers. The plant growth regulator NAA, a synthetic auxin, is known to …

Lateral root initiation is a post-embryonic process that requires the specification of a subset
of pericycle cells adjacent to the xylem pole in the primary root into lateral root founder cells …

Evolution has been an inventive process since its inception, about 4 billion years ago. It has
generated an astounding diversity of novel mechanisms and structures for adaptation to the …

Extracellular auxin maxima and minima are important to control plant developmental
programs. Auxin gradients are provided by the concerted action of proteins from the three …

The Aux/IAA family proteins, key components of the auxin signaling pathway, are plant-
specific transcription factors with important roles in regulating a wide range of plant growth …

To study the mechanisms of growth and development, it is necessary to analyze the
dynamics of the tissue patterning regulators in time and space and to take into account their …
