Isolation and characterization of Pisum sativum apyrases, PsNTP9 and PsNTP9-DM, cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2019 Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is widely known as a fuel source for many biochemical processes, and to a lesser degree also as a signaling molecule in plants and animals.

Phenome‐to‐genome insights for evaluating root system architecture in field studies of maize
The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.Abstract Understanding the genetic basis of root system architecture (RSA) in crops requires innovative approaches that enable both high‐throughput and precise phenotyping in field conditions. In this study, we evaluated multiple phenotyping and analytical frameworks for quantifying RSA in mature, field‐grown maize in three field experiments.

Auxins and environmental factors regulate root gravitropism
Biologia PlantarumRoots are important for plant anchoring, water and nutrient absorption, and other physiological processes. Gravity is a primary determinant of the spatial distribution of plant roots in the soil.

PID/WAG-mediated phosphorylation of the Arabidopsis PIN3 auxin transporter mediates polarity switches during gravitropism [PDF]
, 2018 Intercellular distribution of the plant hormone auxin largely depends on the polar subcellular distribution of the plasma membrane PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin transporters. PIN polarity switches in response to different developmental and environmental signals

Ecological Research, Volume 40, Issue 5, September 2025.Conifers adapt to high‐latitude regions with narrow crowns, while broadleaf trees form spherical crowns in low‐latitude areas. This study utilized the Spatially Explicit Individual‐Based Dynamic Global Vegetation Model to analyze the impact of crown morphology on competition and ecosystem productivity.

Switching the Direction of Stem Gravitropism by Altering Two Amino Acids in AtLAZY11[OPEN]
Plant Physiology, 2019 A structure-function analysis identifies a conserved domain of the Arabidopsis LAZY1 protein that reverses the direction of stem gravitropism by switching the causal auxin gradient.

The Invisible Frontline: High‐Tech Root Imaging for Crop Stress Adaptation
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT Roots are crucial for enhancing crop resilience to abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, cold, nutrient deficiency, and metal toxicity. Root system architecture and morphological traits play a significant role in enabling plants to access water and nutrients under stress conditions.

Nature Communications, 2019 Arabidopsis PIN2 protein directs transport of the phytohormone auxin from the root tip into the root elongation zone. Variation in hormone transport, which depends on a delicate interplay between PIN2 sorting to and from polar plasma membrane domains ...

The Plant Journal, Volume 123, Issue 5, September 2025.Significance Statement Plants produce progesterone and androgens, which alter root morphology in A. thaliana and 60% of tested angiosperms. Brassinosteroids seem uninvolved. Understanding the mechanism is like navigating an unknown city—exemplarily Dittelbrunn (a small village in Bavaria)—where the expected shortcut (interaction with brassinosteroids ...

Regulation of tiller angle by gravity-sensing genes in rice
Crop JournalEndodermal cells and starch-accumulating amyloplasts are well-known gravity sensors initiating shoot gravitropism in Arabidopsis thaliana. The transcription factors SHR and SGR1 regulate endodermal cell formation, while PGM has been demonstrated to ...
