Auxin is a key regulator of virtually every aspect of plant growth and development from
embryogenesis to senescence. Previous studies have indicated that auxin regulates these …

Taking advantage of natural variation promotes our understanding of phenotypic diversity
and trait evolution, ultimately accelerating plant breeding, in which the identification of …

The flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana is a dicot model organism for research in many
aspects of plant biology. A comprehensive annotation of its genome paves the way for …

Translational regulation contributes to plasticity in metabolism and growth that enables
plants to survive in a dynamic environment. Here, we used the precise mapping of ribosome …

Changes in gene expression are at the core of most biological processes, from cell
differentiation to organ development, including the adaptation of the whole organism to the …

Target of rapamycin (TOR) promotes reinitiation at upstream ORF s (u ORF s) in genes that
play important roles in stem cell regulation and organogenesis in plants. Here, we report that …

Regulation of protein synthesis is a vital step in controlling gene expression, especially
during development. Over the last 10 years, it has become clear that rather than being …

We review the evidence that upstream open reading frames (uORFs) function as RNA
sequence elements for post-transcriptional control of gene expression, specifically …

Protein synthesis is a fundamental process in gene expression that depends upon the
abundance and accessibility of the mRNA transcript as well as the activity of many protein …

Background The phytohormone auxin is involved in a wide range of developmental
processes and auxin signaling is known to modulate the expression of target genes via two …
