Cellular basis for blade splitting in bull kelp, Nereocystis luetkeana

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Blade splitting in bull kelp, Nereocystis luetkeana is central to thallus development and function, yet the cellular basis of this process remains poorly understood. Two historical models proposed contrasting mechanisms: One attributes blade separation primarily to programmed cell death, whereas the other suggests mechanical tearing ...

Mutual inhibition between EPFL2 and auxin extends the intervals of periodic leaf morphogenesis

Nature Communications
Rules behind the spatial arrangement of repetitive modules are key principles of multicellular morphogenesis. In plant shoots, PIN-FORMED 1 (PIN1)-mediated polar auxin transport instructs periodic formation of auxin maxima, which develop into lateral ...

From Caffeine to Aspirin: Everyday Molecules as Triggers for Genetically Encoded Proximity Systems

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This Perspective article highlights how familiar dietary ingredients and over‐the‐counter (OTC) drugs (such as caffeine and its metabolites, SA, and aspirin) can be repurposed as clinically translatable chemical triggers for genetically encoded proximity systems.

The Biphasic Root Growth Response to Abscisic Acid in Arabidopsis Involves Interaction with Ethylene and Auxin Signalling Pathways

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) is known to either stimulate or inhibit root growth, depending on its concentration. In this study, the roles of ethylene and auxin in this biphasic effect of ABA on root elongation were investigated using chemical ...

Combining phenotypic, physiological, and multi‐omics studies to provide new insights on the role of 2,4‐epibrassinolide in regulation of seed shattering in Elymus sibiricus L.

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Seed shattering limits the production of Elymus sibiricus L., and application of exogenous brassinosteroid significantly alleviates plant organ abscission. Methods To explore the potential regulatory network of brassinosteroid on seed shattering, the abscission zone of E. sibiricus cv. Lanyu No.

A magnetically enabled simulation of microgravity represses the auxin response during early seed germination on a microfluidic platform

Microsystems & Nanoengineering, 2022
For plants on Earth, the phytohormone auxin is essential for gravitropism-regulated seedling establishment and plant growth. However, little is known about auxin responses under microgravity conditions due to the lack of a tool that can provide an ...

Developmental roles of AUX1/LAX auxin influx carriers in plants [PDF]

, 2019
Plant hormone auxin regulates several aspects of plant growth and development. Auxin is predominantly synthesized in the shoot apex and developing leaf primordia and from there it is transported to the target tissues e.g. roots.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
