Plant cells build nanofibrillar walls that are central to plant growth, morphogenesis and
mechanics. Starting from simple sugars, three groups of polysaccharides, namely, cellulose …

Auxin, one of the first identified and most widely studied phytohormones, has been and will
remain a hot topic in plant biology. After more than a century of passionate exploration, the …

The phytohormone auxin controls many processes in plants, at least in part through its
regulation of cell expansion. The acid growth hypothesis has been proposed to explain …

Growth regulation tailors development in plants to their environment. A prominent example
of this is the response to gravity, in which shoots bend up and roots bend down. This …

Auxins are plant hormones that play a central role in controlling plant growth and
development across different environmental conditions. Even at low concentrations, auxins …

Phytohormones are regulators of plant growth and development, which under different types
of stress can play a fundamental role in a plant's adaptation and survival. Some of these …

Under the natural environment, nutrient signals interact with phytohormones to coordinate
and reprogram plant growth and survival. Sugars are important molecules that control …

Extracellular perception of auxin, an essential phytohormone in plants, has been debated for
decades. Auxin-binding protein 1 (ABP1) physically interacts with quintessential …

The plant-signaling molecule auxin triggers fast and slow cellular responses across land
plants and algae. The nuclear auxin pathway mediates gene expression and controls …

Mythology is replete with good and evil shapeshifters, who, by definition, display great
adaptability and assume many different forms—with several even turning themselves into …
