Plants are exposed to a variety of abiotic stresses; these stresses have profound effects on
plant growth, survival, and productivity. Tolerance and adaptation to stress require …

The plant signaling molecule auxin is present in multiple kingdoms of life. Since its
discovery, a century of research has been focused on its action as a phytohormone. In land …

The monophyletic group of embryophytes (land plants) stands out among photosynthetic
eukaryotes: they are the sole constituents of the macroscopic flora on land. In their entirety …

Auxins are pivotal plant hormones that regulate plant growth and transmembrane polar
auxin transport (PAT) direct patterns of development. The PIN-FORMED (PIN) family of …

As a multigenic trait, rice tillering can optimize plant architecture for the maximum agronomic
yield. SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN‐LIKE14 (OsSPL14) has been …

The plant hormone auxin is certainly the most studied developmental regulator in plants.
The many functions of auxin during development, from the embryo to the root and shoot …

Auxin is a crucial plant hormone that controls a multitude of developmental processes. The
directional movement of auxin between cells is largely facilitated by canonical PIN-FORMED …

Low-temperature sensitivity at the germination stage is a challenge for direct seeding of rice
in Asian countries. How Ca2+ and auxin (IAA) signaling regulate primary root growth under …

The transition from simple to complex multicellularity represents a major evolutionary step
that occurred in only a few eukaryotic lineages. Comparative analyses of these lineages …

The classical acid growth theory suggests that auxin stimulates cell expansion by triggering
apoplast acidification via plasma membrane (PM)-localized H+-ATPase. Here, we …
