An Artificial Conversion of Roots into Organs with Shoot Stem Characteristics by Inducing Two Transcription Factors

iScience, 2020
Summary: Somatic plant cells can regenerate shoots and/or roots or adventitious embryonic calluses, which may induce organ formation under certain conditions. Such regenerations occur via dedifferentiation of somatic cells, induction of organs, and their

Functional mapping of gravitropism and phototropism for a desert tree, Populus euphratica

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2021
Background: Plants have evolved the dual capacity for maximizing light assimilation through stem growth (phototropism) and maximizing water and nutrient absorption through root growth (gravitropism).

The Rice Actin-Binding Protein RMD Regulates Light-Dependent Shoot Gravitropism [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2019
Light and gravity are two key determinants in orientating plant stems for proper growth and development. The organization and dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton are essential for cell biology and critically regulated by actin-binding proteins. However, the role of actin cytoskeleton in shoot negative gravitropism remains controversial. In this work, we

Transcriptome and metabolite analyses provide insights into zigzag-shaped stem formation in tea plants (Camellia sinensis)

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Shoot orientation is important for plant architecture formation, and zigzag-shaped shoots are a special trait found in many plants. Zigzag-shaped shoots have been selected and thoroughly studied in Arabidopsis; however, the regulatory ...

Gravi-Sensitivity of Mosses and Their Gravity-Dependent Ontogenetic Adaptations

Life, 2022
Gravi-morphoses affect the variability of plants and are the morphogenetic adaptation to different environmental conditions. Gravity-dependent phenotypic plasticity of gametophytes as well as gravi-sensitivity of moss protonemata in microgravity and ...

Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Cascade MKK7-MPK6 Plays Important Roles in Plant Development and Regulates Shoot Branching by Phosphorylating PIN1 in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2016
Emerging evidences exhibit that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK/MPK) signaling pathways are connected with many aspects of plant development. The complexity of MAPK cascades raises challenges not only to identify the MAPK module in planta but also

Shoot and root branch growth angle control - the wonderfulness of lateralness. [PDF]

, 2015
The overall shape of plants, the space they occupy above and below ground, is determined principally by the number, length, and angle of their lateral branches.

Termination of Shoot Gravitropic Responses by Auxin Feedback on PIN3 Polarity [PDF]

Current Biology, 2016
Plants adjust their growth according to gravity. Gravitropism involves gravity perception, signal transduction, and asymmetric growth response, with organ bending as a consequence [1]. Asymmetric growth results from the asymmetric distribution of the plant-specific signaling molecule auxin [2] that is generated by lateral transport, mediated in the ...
