Most plant growth and development processes are regulated in one way or another by
auxin. The best-studied mechanism by which auxin exerts its regulatory effects is through …

The Streptophyta emerged about a billion years ago. Nowadays, this branch of the green
lineage is most famous for one of its clades, the land plants (Embryophyta). Although …

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 …

Intercellular signalling is an indispensable part of multicellular life. Understanding the
commonalities and differences in how signalling molecules function in two remote branches …

Streptophytes are best known as the clade containing the teeming diversity of embryophytes
(land plants). 1, 2, 3, 4 Next to embryophytes are however a range of freshwater and …

The phytohormone auxin is at times called the master regulator of plant processes and has
been shown to be a central player in embryo development, the establishment of the polar …

Phytohormones play a central role in plant development and environmental responses.
Auxin is a classical hormone that is required for organ formation, tissue patterning, and …

Land plants are astounding processors of information; due to their sessile nature, they adjust
the molecular programs that define their development and physiology in accordance with …

Immense chemical diversity is one of the hallmark features of plants. This chemo-diversity is
mainly underpinned by a highly complex and biodiverse biochemical machinery. Plant …

Plants are associated with diverse bacteria in nature. Some bacteria are pathogens that
decrease plant fitness, and others are beneficial bacteria that promote plant growth and …
