The plant hormone auxin is essential for plant growth and development, controlling both organ development and overall plant architecture. Auxin homeostasis is regulated by coordination of biosynthesis ...

Efficient deposition of storage compounds in seeds is a key determinant of crop yield, but the underlying regulatory network of seed filling remains undefined. For many years, researchers have been ...

Plant roots rely on local production of a key hormone that controls many aspects of development and response to environmental changes, according to new research from North Carolina State University.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University scientists Natalia Dudareva and Joseph Lynch have been searching for a way to increase a plant’s production of phenylalanine, a compound important for plant ...

Plants respond to mild nitrogen deficiency by elongating their lateral roots. In this way, more nitrogen can be absorbed than before. Researchers have now discovered a hormonal regulatory module that ...

Some plants naturally possess the remarkable ability to produce a whole new plant from a single cell that is neither a sperm nor an egg. But scientists can change certain cell types from some plants ...

Plant roots rely on local production of a key hormone that controls many aspects of development and response to environmental changes, according to new research. Specifically, local auxin production ...
