The Plant Journal, Volume 123, Issue 3, August 2025.SUMMARY Very long‐chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), being constituents of different types of lipids, are critical factors in plant development, presumably due to their impact on the endomembrane system. The VLCFAs are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum by a heterotetrameric enzymatic complex including β‐ketoacyl CoA reductase 1 (KCR1), whose mutant is ...

Live tracking of moving samples in confocal microscopy for vertically grown roots
eLife, 2017 Roots navigate through soil integrating environmental signals to orient their growth. The Arabidopsis root is a widely used model for developmental, physiological and cell biological studies.

Suppression of asymmetric acid efflux and gravitropism in maize roots treated with auxin transport inhibitors of sodium orthovanadate [PDF]
In gravitropically stimulated roots of maize (Zea mays L., hybrid WF9 x 38MS), there is more acid efflux on the rapidly growing upper side than on the slowly growing lower side.

Phototropism: Translating light into directional growth. [PDF]
, 2012 Phototropism allows plants to align their photosynthetic tissues with incoming light. The direction of incident light is sensed by the phototropin family of blue light photoreceptors (phot1 and phot2 in Arabidopsis), which are light-activated protein ...

Spatio-temporal kinematic analysis of shoot gravitropism in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Plant Biotechnology, 2020 Plant shoots can bend upward against gravity, a behavior known as shoot gravitropism. The conventional quantification of shoot bending has been restricted to measurements of shoot tip angle, which cannot fully describe the spatio-temporal bending process.
