Lipids are one of the major components of biological membranes including the plasma
membrane, which is the interface between the cell and the environment. It has become clear …

Phosphatidic acid (PA) is an essential phospholipid involved in membrane biosynthesis and
signal transduction in all eukaryotes. This review focuses on its role as lipid second …

Many signalling proteins permanently or transiently localize to specific organelles. It is well
established that certain lipids act as biochemical landmarks to specify compartment identity …

Plants use different strategies to deal with high soil salinity. One strategy is activation of
pathways that allow the plant to export or compartmentalise salt. Relying on their phenotypic …

Lipids are a principal component of plasma membrane, acting as a protective barrier
between the cell and its surroundings. Abiotic stresses such as drought and temperature …

From embryogenesis to fruit formation, almost every aspect of plant development and
differentiation is controlled by the cellular accumulation or depletion of auxin from cells and …

The phytohormone auxin plays a central role in shaping plant growth and development. With
decades of genetic and biochemical studies, numerous core molecular components and …

Environmental stresses, such as shading of the shoot, drought, and soil salinity, threaten
plant growth, yield, and survival. Plants can alleviate the impact of these stresses through …

The evolution of the plant vascular system is a key process in Earth history because it
enabled plants to conquer land and transform the terrestrial surface. Among the vascular …

The directional transport of auxin, known as polar auxin transport (PAT), allows asymmetric
distribution of this hormone in different cells and tissues. This system creates local auxin …
