Plant growth, development, and response to the environment are mediated by a group of
small signaling molecules named hormones. Plants regulate hormone response pathways …

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 …

Oxygen is a key signalling component of plant biology, and whilst an oxygen-sensing
mechanism was previously described in Arabidopsis thaliana, key features of the associated …

Background The phytohormone auxin is critical for plant growth and orchestrates many
developmental processes.• Scope This review considers the complex array of mechanisms …

Trichoderma species belong to a class of free-living fungi beneficial to plants that are
common in the rhizosphere. We investigated the role of auxin in regulating the growth and …

Hormones have been at the centre of plant physiology research for more than a century.
Research into plant hormones (phytohormones) has at times been considered as a rather …

The differential distribution of the plant signaling molecule auxin is required for many
aspects of plant development. Local auxin maxima and gradients arise as a result of local …

The regular arrangement of leaves around a plant's stem, called phyllotaxis, has for
centuries attracted the attention of philosophers, mathematicians and natural scientists; …

Auxin transport, which is mediated by specialized influx and efflux carriers, plays a major
role in many aspects of plant growth and development. AUXIN1 (AUX1) has been …

A small organizing center, the quiescent center (QC), maintains stem cells in the Arabidopsis
root and defines the stem cell niche. The phytohormone auxin influences the position of this …
