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

Growth regulation tailors development in plants to their environment. A prominent example
of this is the response to gravity, in which shoots bend up and roots bend down. This …

The plant-signaling molecule auxin triggers fast and slow cellular responses across land
plants and algae. The nuclear auxin pathway mediates gene expression and controls …

Tropisms, growth responses to environmental stimuli such as light or gravity, are spectacular
examples of adaptive plant development. The plant hormone auxin serves as a major …

Among the most fascinated properties of the plant hormone auxin is its ability to promote
formation of its own directional transport routes. These gradually narrowing auxin channels …

Polar localization of PIN‐FORMED proteins (PINs) at the plasma membrane is essential for
plant development as they direct the transport of phytohormone auxin between cells. PIN …

The endomembrane system consists of various membrane‐bound organelles including the
endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, trans‐Golgi network (TGN), endosomes, and …

For multicellular organisms to develop, cells must grow, divide, and differentiate along
preferential or exclusive orientations or directions. Moreover, those orientations, or axes …
