Root system architecture is an important determinant of below-ground resource capture and hence overall plant fitness. The plant hormone auxin plays a central role in almost every facet of root development from the cellular to the whole-root-system level.

Background Auxin is essential for plant growth and development. Although substantial progress has been made in understanding auxin pathways in model plants such as Arabidopsis and rice, little is known in moso bamboo which is famous for its fast growth ...

Polar Auxin Transport and Asymmetric Auxin Distribution [PDF]
In all multicellular organisms extensive communication is required between cells and tissues in order to coordinate growth and development. Both plants and animals have signaling chemicals, traditionally termed hormones that mediate short- and long-distance communication.

Modeling Auxin Signaling in Roots: Auxin Computations
Auxin signaling and patterning is an inherently complex process, involving polarized auxin transport, metabolism, and signaling, its effect on developmental zones, as well as growth rates, and the feedback between all these different aspects. This complexity has led to an important role for computational modeling in unraveling the multifactorial roles ...

Role of the Arabidopsis PIN6 auxin transporter in auxin homeostasis and auxin-mediated development.
Plant-specific PIN-formed (PIN) efflux transporters for the plant hormone auxin are required for tissue-specific directional auxin transport and cellular auxin homeostasis.

Auxin Response Factors: output control in auxin biology [PDF]
AbstractThe phytohormone auxin is involved in almost all developmental processes in land plants. Most, if not all, of these processes are mediated by changes in gene expression. Auxin acts on gene expression through a short nuclear pathway that converges upon the activation of a family of DNA-binding transcription factors. These AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORS (

The phytohormone auxin plays significant roles in regulating plant growth and development. In Arabidopsis, a subset of ATP-BINDING CASSETTE subfamily B (ABCB) transporters participate in polar movement of auxin by exclusion from and prevention of ...

Functional analysis of auxin derived from a symbiotic mycobiont
The biosynthesis of auxin or indole-3-acetic acid by microorganisms has a major impact on plant–microbe interactions. Several beneficial microbiota are known to produce auxin, which largely influences root development and growth in the host plants.

Evolution and structural diversification of PILS putative auxin carriers in plants
The phytohormone auxin contributes to virtually every aspect of the plant development. The spatiotemporal distribution of auxin depends on a complex interplay between auxin metabolism and intercellular auxin transport.
