Host plant‐specific volatiles of Beauveria bassiana‐colonized plants initiate trophic plant–aphid–predator cascades

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Endophytic colonization of melon plants by B. bassiana modifies the crop volatile profiles in a genotype‐dependent manner. A predator choice is biased toward endophytically colonized plants infested with aphids revealing a guardian within effect of the fungus of great potential in integrated pest management.

Phyllotaxis involves auxin drainage through leaf primordia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The spatial arrangement of leaves and flowers around the stem, known as phyllotaxis, is controlled by an auxin-dependent reiterative mechanism that leads to regular spacing of the organs and thereby to remarkably precise phyllotactic patterns.

Efficient water‐soluble blue/red‐emissive carbon dots matching plant absorption spectra: Synthesis, tunable control, and their applications in promoting plant growth

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the spectral demand of plant photosystems, this review summarizes the synthesis, emission regulation, dual‐emission design, and gram‐scale production of CDs for agricultural applications. Spectrally matched blue‐ and red‐emissive CDs enhance plant light utilization by converting underutilized light into photosynthetically active radiation and

A shift in sensitivity to auxin within development of maize seedlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The auxin-induced changes in cytosolic concentrations of Ca2+ and H+ ions were investigated in protoplasts from maize coleoptile cells at 3rd, 4th and 5th day of development of etiolated seedlings. The shifts in [Ca2+]cyt and [H+]cyt were detected by use

Zinc addition and mowing alter the timing and duration of reproductive phenology in dominant plants of a meadow steppe

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology, while genetically determined, is highly responsive to environmental drivers such as soil nutrient availability and disturbance. As an essential micronutrient, zinc (Zn) plays a critical role in plant development by regulating key processes including RNA

How does auxin influence on plant developmental responses during salinity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Plants integrate intrinsic developmental programs and quickly adjust growth to environmental stimuli. Plant growth and development largely depend on the phytohormone auxin which exerts its function throughout partially redundant F-box receptors, TIR1 ...

Mechanical Regulation of Auxin-Mediated Growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
SummaryBackgroundThe phytohormone auxin is a primary regulator of growth and developmental pattern formation in plants. Auxin accumulates at specific sites (e.g., organ primordia) and induces localized growth within a tissue.

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

The auxin influx carrier is essential for correct leaf positioning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Auxin is of vital importance in virtually every aspect of plant growth and development, yet, even after almost a century of intense study, major gaps in our knowledge of its synthesis, distribution, perception, and signal transduction remain.

Lanthanum Inhibits Primary Root Growth by Repressing Auxin Carrier Abundances in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Lanthanum (La) is one of rare earth elements that was used as a crop growth stimulants; however, high concentration of La markedly inhibited plant growth. Our previous study indicated that, although La induced the expression of auxin biosynthesis-related
