Environmental, developmental, and genetic factors controlling root system architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A better understanding of the development and architecture of roots is essential to develop strategies to increase crop yield and optimize agricultural land use.

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Gradient Expression of Transcription Factor Imposes a Boundary on Organ Regeneration Potential in Plants

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: A wide variety of multicellular organisms across the kingdoms display remarkable ability to restore their tissues or organs when they suffer damage. However, the ability to repair damage is not uniformly distributed throughout body parts.

Flavonoid scutellarin positively regulates root length through NUTCRACKER

open access: yesPlant Diversity, 2021
Exploring approaches to regulate meristem is of special importance and broad interest. In this study, we found that the flavonoid scutellarin, which has a 6-hydroxyl and a 7-glucoside, increased root length through the transcription factor NUTCRACKER ...

Functionally different PIN proteins control auxin flux during bulbil development in Agave tequilana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In Agave tequilana, reproductive failure or inadequate flower development stimulates the formation of vegetative bulbils at the bracteoles, ensuring survival in a hostile environment.

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

The Arabidopsis JAGGED LATERAL ORGANS (JLO) gene sensitizes plants to auxin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plant growth and development of new organs depend on the continuous activity of the meristems. In the shoot, patterns of organ initiation are determined by PINFORMED (PIN)-dependent auxin distribution, while the undifferentiated state of meristem cells ...

Actin Isovariant ACT2‐Mediated Cellular Auxin Homeostasis Regulates Lateral Root Organogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lateral root (LR) organogenesis is regulated by cellular flux of auxin within pericycle cells, which depends on the membrane distribution and polar localization of auxin carrier proteins. The correct distribution of auxin carrier proteins relies on the intracellular trafficking of these proteins aided by filamentous actin as a track.

Gallic acid regulates primary root elongation via modulating auxin transport and signal transduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Gallic acid is an important secondary metabolite in plants, with great value in medicine, food, and chemical industry. However, whether and how this widely existing natural polyphenolic compound affects the growth and development of plants themselves ...

Identification and characterization of the BZR transcription factor family and its expression in response to abiotic stresses in Zea mays L. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant specific steroidal hormones that play diverse roles in regulating a broad spectrum of plant growth and developmental processes, as well as, in responding to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Extensive research over the
