Negative Phototropism of Chlorophytum comosum Roots and Their Mechanisms

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal, 2015
The aerial roots of Chlorophytum comosum were grown hydroponically, allowing us to study the performance and mechanism of negative phototropism. The results of this study were as follows.

Low Blue Light Enhances Phototropism by Releasing Cryptochrome1-Mediated Inhibition of PIF4 Expression1[OPEN]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2020
Persistent low blue light in natural canopy shade relieves the inhibitory effect of cryptochrome1 on PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR4, enhancing phototropism in de-etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings.

A unified model of shoot tropism in plants: photo-, gravi- and Propio-ception. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2015
Land plants rely mainly on gravitropism and phototropism to control their posture and spatial orientation. In natural conditions, these two major tropisms act concurrently to create a photogravitropic equilibrium in the responsive organ.

Stem phototropism towards blue and ultraviolet light.

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2020
Positive phototropism is the process through which plants orient their organs towards a directional light source. While the blue light receptors phototropins (phot) play a major role in phototropism towards blue (B) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation, recent

From lab to field : yield stability and shade avoidance genes are massively differentially expressed in the field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To unravel molecular mechanisms with the ultimate goal to achieve improved stress resilience or increased yield, plants are often studied under highly controlled conditions in which stresses are applied and in which growth‐ or architecture‐related traits

Functional characterization of a constitutively active kinase variant of Arabidopsis phototropin 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Phototropins (phots) are plasma membrane-associated serine/threonine kinases that coordinate a range of processes linked to optimizing photosynthetic efficiency in plants.

Peg Biology: Deciphering the Molecular Regulations Involved During Peanut Peg Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Peanut or groundnut is one of the most important legume crops with high protein and oil content. The high nutritional qualities of peanut and its multiple usage have made it an indispensable component of our daily life, in both confectionary and ...

ALS as Tool to Study Preferred Stem Inclination Directions

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Although gravitropism forces trees to grow vertically, stems have shown to prefer specific orientations. Apart from wind deforming the tree shape, lateral light can result in prevailing inclination directions.

Phototropism: Translating light into directional growth. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...
