Amide-linked conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) are putative storage or inactivation forms of the growth hormone auxin. Here, we describe the Arabidopsis iar3 mutant that displays reduced ...
She and her colleagues set out to create a new way to study plants’ responses to auxin by designing a lab-made version of the hormone that can be precisely controlled. Working with synthetic chemists ...
During the development of organisms, a particular event repeatedly occurs: a signal appears temporarily, but the processes it triggers must be maintained – for example, when the fate of cells in the ...
After detecting synthetic auxin, Arabidopsis plants genetically engineered to produce the synthetic auxin receptor behaved just like normal - growing the same sideways baubles of root branches.
The picture shows the differences in cell lengths, relative auxin content and the localization of the PIN2 auxin transporter between neighboring cell files in Arabidopsis root tip supplemented ...
Conventionally, tissue culture for plant regeneration requires the application of plant growth regulators (PGRs), such as auxins and cytokinins, to control cell differentiation.
A biosensor for the direct visualization of auxin. Nature, 2021; DOI: 10.1038/s41586-021-03425-2 ...
