New insights into root gravitropic signalling [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2014 An important feature of plants is the ability to adapt their growth towards or away from external stimuli such as light, water, temperature, and gravity. These responsive plant growth movements are called tropisms and they contribute to the plant's survival and reproduction.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Plant chemical genetics : from phenotype-based screens to synthetic biology [PDF]
, 2017 The treatment of a biological system with small molecules to specifically perturb cellular functions is commonly referred to as chemical biology. Small molecules are used commercially as drugs, herbicides, and fungicides in different systems, but in ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Proposed model of TAC1‐mediated leaf angle regulation in tobacco. ABSTRACT Plant architecture is key to crop yield, with leaf angle being critical for high‐density cultivation. Although TAC1 represents a promising regulator of leaf angle for breeding, its molecular mechanism remains poorly understood, particularly at single‐nucleus resolution. Here, we

Transcription Profiling of Potato Leaves in Response to Heat Stress at Single‐Cell Resolution
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2970-2987, May 2026.ABSTRACT Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a globally important food crop with considerable nutritional and economic value. Heat stress significantly inhibits potato plant growth and tuber development, constraining the sustainable development of the potato industry. Currently, studies on the cellular‐level mechanisms underlying heat adaptation in potato

Single-cell-based system to monitor carrier driven cellular auxin homeostasis [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Abundance and distribution of the plant hormone auxin play important roles in plant development. Besides other metabolic processes, various auxin carriers control the cellular level of active auxin and, hence, are major regulators of cellular

Striking the Right Chord: Signaling Enigma during Root Gravitropism
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Plants being sessile can often be judged as passive acceptors of their environment. However, plants are actually even more active in responding to the factors from their surroundings. Plants do not have eyes, ears or vestibular system like animals, still

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 When positioned horizontally, roots grow down toward the direction of gravity. This phenomenon, called gravitropism, is influenced by most of the major plant hormones including brassinosteroids. Epi-brassinolide (eBL) was previously shown to enhance root
