Root growth and plant height connected to an auxin-related gene
What makes a plant tall? Scientists think it may be connected to a gene involved in responding to the hormone Auxin.
Root responses in Arundo donax
When soils dry they don’t dry uniformly, some parts remain damper than others. How does a reed like Arundo donax respond?
Abscisic acid inhibits hypocotyl elongation acting on gibberellins, DELLA proteins and auxin
Abscisic acid affects rice cell wall phosphate remobilization and P transporation
Melatonin and its relationship to plant hormones
Plant melatonin appears to be a multi-regulatory molecule, similar to those observed in animals, with many specific functions in plant physiology.
Too much tubulin flips cell wall flexibility
Joseph Stinziano investigates how something you might find in jam controls how easily trees open or close access their leaves.
Endogenous hormones and fructan metabolism in Chrysolaena
Results suggest that the co-ordinated action of carbohydrate metabolism and hormone synthesis enables C. obovata to survive unfavourable field conditions.
