Recent findings call for the critical overview of some incorrectly used plant cell and tissue
culture terminology such as dedifferentiation, callus, totipotency, and somatic …

The phytohormones auxin and cytokinin interact to regulate many plant growth and
developmental processes. Elements involved in the biosynthesis, inactivation, transport …

Cytokinins are N 6 substituted adenine derivatives that affect many aspects of plant growth
and development, including cell division, shoot initiation and growth, leaf senescence …

Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the main auxin in higher plants, has profound effects on plant
growth and development. Both plants and some plant pathogens can produce IAA to …

Auxin plays essential roles in plant normal growth and development. The auxin signaling
pathway relies on the auxin gradient within tissues and cells, which is facilitated by both …

Previously, algae were recognized as small prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms found
only in aquatic habitats. However, according to a recent paradigm shift, algae are …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a collective term for diverse processes causing an actively
induced, tightly controlled cellular suicide. PCD has a multitude of functions in the …

Summary Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the natural auxin in plants, regulates many aspects of
plant growth and development. Extensive analyses have elucidated the components of …

In most flowering plants, the apical-basal body axis is established by an asymmetric division
of the polarized zygote. In Arabidopsis, early embryo patterning is regulated by WOX …

Auxin is a key coordinative signal required for many aspects of plant development and its
levels are controlled by auxin metabolism and intercellular auxin transport. Here we find that …
