Abstract: The phytohormone auxin is a key factor in plant growth and development. Forward and reverse genetic strategies have identified important molecular components in auxin perception, signaling, and transport. These advances resulted in the identification of some of the underlying regulatory mechanisms as well as the emergence of functional frameworks for auxin action. This review focuses on the feedback loops that form an integrative part of these regulatory mechanisms.

Phosphorus and magnesium interactively modulate the elongation and directional growth of primary roots in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh
TL;DR: Phosphorus and magnesium interactively affect root elongation and skewing by a pathway that is largely dependent upon the signalling function of auxin, which leads to accelerated cell expansion and division.
Reference gene selection for quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction normalization during in vitro adventitious rooting in Eucalyptus globulus Labill
Márcia Rodrigues de Almeida,Carolina Michels Ruedell,Felipe Klein Ricachenevsky,Raul Antonio Sperotto,Giancarlo Pasquali,Arthur Germano Fett-Neto +5 more
TL;DR: The study showed that expression stability varied between putative reference genes tested in E. globulus adventitious rooting, which will enable more accurate and reliable normalization of qPCR results for gene expression studies in this economically important woody plant, particularly related to rooting and clonal propagation.
The Arabidopsis R‐SNARE VAMP714 is essential for polarisation of PIN proteins and auxin responses
Xiaoyan Gu,Xiaoyan Gu,Kumari Fonseka,Julien Agneessens,Stuart A. Casson,Andrei Smertenko,Guangqin Guo,Jennifer F. Topping,Patrick J. Hussey,Keith Lindsey +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Arabidopsis R-SNARE VAMP714 protein is essential for the insertion of PINs into the plasma membrane, for polar auxin transport, root gravitropism and morphogenesis.
Genome-wide identification and evolution of the PIN-FORMED (PIN) gene family in Glycine max
Yuan Liu,Haichao Wei +1 more
TL;DR: This research retrieved 23 GmPIN genes from the latest updated G. max genome database and focused on the artificial selection of the soybean PIN genes, providing useful and comprehensive basic information for understanding Gm PIN genes.
Barley NARROW LEAFED DWARF1 encoding a WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX 3 (WOX3) regulates the marginal development of lateral organs
Takanori Yoshikawa,Shin Ya Tanaka,Yuuki Masumoto,Naoya Nobori,Hiroto Ishii,Ken-ichiro Hibara,Jun-Ichi Itoh,Takatoshi Tanisaka,Shin Taketa +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that NLD1 plays pivotal role in the increase of organ width and in the development of marginal tissues in lateral organs in barley.

Local, Efflux-Dependent Auxin Gradients as a Common Module for Plant Organ Formation
Eva Benková,Marta Michniewicz,Michael Sauer,Thomas Teichmann,Daniela Seifertová,Gerd Jürgens,Jiří Friml +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that organ formation in Arabidopsis involves dynamic gradients of the signaling molecule auxin with maxima at the primordia tips, which suggest that PIN-dependent, local auxin gradients represent a common module for formation of all plant organs, regardless of their mature morphology or developmental origin.

The F-box protein TIR1 is an auxin receptor
TL;DR: TIR1 is an auxin receptor that mediates Aux/IAA degradation and auxin-regulated transcription and the loss of TIR1 and three related F-box proteins eliminates saturable auxin binding in plant extracts.

Aux/IAA proteins repress expression of reporter genes containing natural and highly active synthetic auxin response elements.
TL;DR: Cotransfection experiments with natural and synthetic AuxRE reporter genes and effector genes encoding Aux/IAA proteins showed that overexpression of Aux/ IAA proteins in carrot protoplasts resulted in specific repression of TGTCTC Auxre reporter gene expression.

The PIN auxin efflux facilitator network controls growth and patterning in Arabidopsis roots
Ikram Blilou,Jian Xu,Marjolein Wildwater,Viola Willemsen,Ivan A. Paponov,Jiří Friml,Renze Heidstra,Mitsuhiro Aida,Klaus Palme,Ben Scheres +9 more
TL;DR: This work shows that five PIN genes collectively control auxin distribution to regulate cell division and cell expansion in the primary root and reveals an interaction network of auxin transport facilitators and root fate determinants that control patterning and growth of the root primordium.
Efflux-dependent auxin gradients establish the apical–basal axis of Arabidopsis
Jiří Friml,Anne Vieten,Michael Sauer,Dolf Weijers,Dolf Weijers,Heinz Schwarz,Thorsten Hamann,Thorsten Hamann,Remko Offringa,Gerd Jürgens +9 more
TL;DR: The results indicate how the establishment of cell polarity, polar auxin efflux and local auxin response result in apical–basal axis formation of the embryo, and thus determine the axiality of the adult plant.
