Auxin influx inhibitors 1-NOA, 2-NOA, and CHPAA interfere with membrane dynamics in tobacco cells.

J. Exp. Bot. 61(13) , 3589-98, (2010)

The phytohormone auxin is transported through the plant body either via vascular pathways or from cell to cell by specialized polar transport machinery. This machinery consists of a balanced system of passive diffusion combined with the activities of auxin in...

High-affinity auxin transport by the AUX1 influx carrier protein.

Curr. Biol. 16(11) , 1123-7, (2006)

In plants, auxin is a key regulator of development and is unique among plant hormones in that its function requires polarized transport between neighboring cells to form concentration gradients across various plant tissues. Although putative auxin-influx and ...

Auxin influx activity is associated with Frankia infection during actinorhizal nodule formation in Casuarina glauca.

Plant Physiol. 144(4) , 1852-62, (2007)

Plants from the Casuarinaceae family enter symbiosis with the actinomycete Frankia leading to the formation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules. We observed that application of the auxin influx inhibitor 1-naphtoxyacetic acid perturbs actinorhizal nodule formatio...

Novel auxin transport inhibitors phenocopy the auxin influx carrier mutation aux1.

Plant J. 25(4) , 399-406, (2001)

The hormone auxin is transported in plants through the combined actions of diffusion and specific auxin influx and efflux carriers. In contrast to auxin efflux, for which there are well documented inhibitors, understanding the developmental roles of carrier-m...

Auxin and ethylene response interactions during Arabidopsis root hair development dissected by auxin influx modulators.

Plant Physiol. 130(4) , 1908-17, (2002)

The plant hormones auxin and ethylene have been shown to play important roles during root hair development. However, cross talk between auxin and ethylene makes it difficult to understand the independent role of either hormone. To dissect their respective rol...

Auxin redistribution modulates plastic development of root system architecture under salt stress in Arabidopsis thaliana.

J. Plant Physiol. 166(15) , 1637-45, (2009)

Auxin plays an important role in the modulation of root system architecture. The effect of salinity on primary root growth has been extensively studied. However, how salinity affects lateral root development and its underlying molecular mechanisms is still un...

Auxin modulates the enhanced development of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. under elevated CO(2).

Plant Cell Environ. 34(8) , 1304-17, (2011)

Root hairs may play a critical role in nutrient acquisition of plants grown under elevated CO(2) . This study investigated how elevated CO(2) enhanced the development of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. The plants under elevated CO(2) (800 µL L(...

Expression profile of PIN, AUX/LAX and PGP auxin transporter gene families in Sorghum bicolor under phytohormone and abiotic stress.

FEBS J. 277 , 2954-2969, (2010)

Auxin is transported by the influx carriers auxin resistant 1/like aux1 (AUX/LAX), and the efflux carriers pin-formed (PIN) and P-glycoprotein (PGP), which play a major role in polar auxin transport. Several auxin transporter genes have been characterized in ...

Expression of gibberellin 20-oxidase1 (AtGA20ox1) in Arabidopsis seedlings with altered auxin status is regulated at multiple levels.

J. Exp. Bot. 59(8) , 2057-70, (2008)

Bioactive gibberellins (GAs) affect many biological processes including germination, stem growth, transition to flowering, and fruit development. The location, timing, and level of bioactive GA are finely tuned to ensure that optimal growth and development oc...

Identification of auxins by a chemical genomics approach.

J. Exp. Bot. 59(10) , 2757-67, (2008)

Thirteen auxenic compounds were discovered in a screen of 10 000 compounds for auxin-like activity in Arabidopsis roots. One of the most potent substances was 2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)-N-(4-H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)acetamide (WH7) which shares similar structur...
