Cytokinin signalling remains a central focus in plant biology due to its vital role in regulating cell division, meristem maintenance and overall plant architecture. Recent investigations have ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Leu-Leu-Met (LLM)-domain B-GATAs are a subfamily of the 30-membered GATA transcription factor family from Arabidopsis. Only two of the six ...
Cytokinin patterning, an important process in plant development, cannot happen via diffusion alone, researchers have discovered. While investigating a regulatory network in plant roots, they ...
The mechanism by which the plant hormone cytokinin controls cell division has been discovered - a breakthrough that significantly improves our understanding of how plants grow. Cell division is ...
Cytokinin is an organic compound that belongs to the cytokinin family. It is widely used in plant physiology and agriculture due to its beneficial effects on plant growth and yield. Cytokinin is a ...
A sophisticated mechanism that allows plant roots to quickly respond to changes in soil conditions has been identified by an international research team. Scientists from the John Innes Centre and ...
Radial growth—thickening of stems and roots driven by the vascular cambium—is essential for plant stability, transport of water and nutrients, and wood formation. Although the plant hormone cytokinin ...
These discoveries are important because, as lead scientist Director Miltos Tsiantis explains, ‘It may be possible to tinker with root growth to improve crops in different environments. For example, ...
