Phytohormones (PHs) play crucial role in regulation of various physiological and
biochemical processes that govern plant growth and yield under optimal and stress …

Adjusting the microenvironment around the cell surface is critical to responding to external
cues or endogenous signals and to maintaining cell activities. In plant cells, the plasma …

Tea is an important global beverage crop and is largely clonally propagated. Despite
previous studies on the species, its genetic and evolutionary history deserves further …

Increasing planting density is a key strategy for enhancing maize yields,–. An ideotype for
dense planting requires a 'smart canopy'with leaf angles at different canopy layers …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are natural plant hormones critical for growth and development. BR
deficient or signaling mutants show significantly shortened root phenotypes. However, for a …

Growth coordination between cell layers is essential for development of most multicellular
organisms. Coordination may be mediated by molecular signaling and/or mechanical …

Brassinosteroids regulate plant growth and development through a protein complex that
includes the leucine-rich repeat receptor-like protein kinase (LRR-RLK) brassinosteroid …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) and abscisic acid (ABA) are essential regulators of plant growth and
stress tolerance. Although the antagonistic interaction of BRs and ABA is proposed to …

Land plants evolved xylem vessels to conduct water and nutrients, and to support the plant.
Microarray analysis with a newly established Arabidopsis in vitro xylem vessel element …

There are 244 cytochrome P450 genes (and 28 pseudogenes) in the Arabidopsis genome.
P450s thus form one of the largest gene families in plants. Contrary to what was initially …
