Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack. [PDF]
Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

Microgramma vacciniifolia, an epiphyte fern, hosts of two stem galls. One is induced by Tortrimosaica polypodivora (Lepidoptera), which can also induce galls in M. squamulosa and M. mortoniana. The alterations induced by T.

Indole-3-butyric acid induces ectopic formation of metaxylem in the hypocotyl of Arabidopsis thaliana without conversion into indole-3-acetic acid and with a positive interaction with ethylene [PDF]
The role of the auxins indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and of the auxin-interacting phytohormone ethylene, on the ectopic formation of primary xylem (xylogenesis in planta) is still little known.

Cell Type-Specific Transcriptomics of Lateral Root Formation and Plasticity
Lateral roots are a major determinant of root architecture and are instrumental for the efficient uptake of water and nutrients. Lateral roots consist of multiple cell types each expressing a unique transcriptome at a given developmental stage. Therefore,

Auxin Modulated Initiation of Lateral Roots Is Linked to Pericycle Cell Length in Maize
Auxin is essential for the regulation of root system architecture by controlling primary root elongation and lateral root (LR) formation. Exogenous auxin has been reported to inhibit primary root elongation and promote the formation of LRs. In this study,

In vivo imaging of the tonoplast intrinsic protein family in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]
Background: Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are widely used as markers for vacuolar compartments in higher plants. Ten TIP isoforms are encoded by the Arabidopsis genome.

Lateral Root Initiation in the Parental Root Meristem of Cucurbits: Old Players in a New Position
While in most higher plants, including the model system Arabidopsis thaliana, the formation of lateral root primordia is induced in the elongation zone of the parental root, in seven plant families, including Cucurbitaceae, an alternative root branching ...
