The AtERF19 gene regulates meristem activity and flower organ size in plants.

The Plant Journal, 2023
Ethylene-responsive factors (ERFs) have diverse functions in regulating various plant developmental processes. Here, we demonstrate the dual roles of an Arabidopsis ERF gene, AtERF19, in regulating reproductive meristem activity and flower organ size ...

SET DOMAIN GROUP 711-mediated H3K27me3 methylation of cytokinin metabolism genes regulates organ size in rice.

Plant Physiology, 2023
Organ size shapes plant architecture during rice (Oryza sativa) growth and development, affecting key factors influencing yield, such as plant height, leaf size, and seed size.

miR156/157 targets SPLs to regulate flowering transition, plant architecture and flower organ size in petunia.

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2021
miR156/157 plays multiple pivotal roles during plant growth and development. In this study, we identified 11 miR156- and 5 miR157-encoding loci from the genome of P. axillaris and P. inflata, designated as PaMIR0156/157s and PiMIR0156/157s, respectively.

Histone ubiquitination controls organ size in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum).

The Plant Journal, 2022
Ubiquitination plays a vital role in modifying protein activity and destiny. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 is one of the enzymes that participates in this precise process.

Polystyrene microplastics induce size-dependent multi-organ damage in mice: Insights into gut microbiota and fecal metabolites.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2023
Particle size is one of the most important factors in determining the biological toxicity of microplastics (MPs). In this study, we attempted to examine the systemic toxicity of polystyrene MPs of different sizes (0.5 µm MP1 and 5 µm MP2) in C57BL/6 J ...

Controlling the size of organs and organisms

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2005
A key difference between yeast and metazoans is the need of the latter to regulate cell proliferation and growth to create organs (and organisms) of reproducible size and shape. Great progress has been made in understanding how growth, cell size and the cell cycle are controlled in metazoans.

Collaboration, motivation, and the size of organizations

Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce, 1996
We present an analytical model of an organization that offers operational drivers of limits on team size. The model trades off benefits from collaborative problem solving against the disadvantages of diminishing motivation when groups get large. Collaboration is represented as parallel employee activity combined with frequent sharing of partial ...

Crystal Size and Organization in Bone

Connective Tissue Research, 1989
Size measurements of dispersed rat bone crystals show that with age a greater proportion exceeds 400 A in length. The surface fractures of more heavily mineralized bones tend to be smooth and stepped, whereas those of less mineralized bones are fibrous. These observations combined with information reported elsewhere on the crystal-collagen relations in

Delay and size in hierarchical organizations

International Journal of Systems Science, 2000
As material and information flow through an organization, work is being performed; its very act incurs time and hence delay. It may be intuitive that, the larger an organization is, the longer the delay will be. This turns out to be not entirely true.

The Hippo pathway: Organ size control and beyond.

Pharmacological Reviews
The Hippo signaling pathway is a highly conserved signaling network for controlling organ size, tissue homeostasis, and regeneration. It integrates a wide range of intracellular and extracellular signals, such as cellular energy status, cell density ...
