Polar auxin transport controls multiple aspects of plant development including differential
growth, embryo and root patterning and vascular tissue differentiation. Identification of …

Auxin is transported through plant tissues, moving from cell to cell in a unique polar manner.
Polar auxin transport controls important growth and developmental processes in higher …

Polar transport of the phytohormone auxin mediates various processes in plant growth and
development, such as apical dominance, tropisms, vascular patterning and axis formation …

Some chemicals occurring naturally within plant tissues (ie endogenously), have a
regulatory, rather than a nutritional role in growth and development. These compounds …

To understand how auxin regulates root growth, we quantified cell division and elemental
elongation, and examined actin organization in the primary root of Arabidopsis thaliana. In …

Polar auxin transport plays a key role in the regulation of plant growth and development. To
identify genes involved in this process, we have developed a genetic procedure to screen …

Auxin transport is required for important growth and developmental processes in plants,
including gravity response and lateral root growth. Several lines of evidence suggest that …

Thermodynamics predicts that transmembrane voltage modulates membrane tension and
that this will cause movement. The magnitude and polarity of movement is governed by cell …

Our current understanding of how plants move auxin through their tissues is largely built on
the use of polar auxin transporter inhibitors. Although the most important proteins that …

In all multicellular organisms extensive communication is required between cells and tissues
in order to coordinate growth and development. Both plants and animals have signaling …
