This study identifies TGA transcription factors, particularly PAN, as nitric oxide sensors in the root stem cell niche, revealing their role in modulating gene expression and stem cell maintenance through S-nitrosylation.

The paper reconstructs a spatiotemporal transcriptional map of lateral root organogenesis in Arabidopsis, revealing a morphogenic cascade of transcription factors and identifying QC/Endodermis cells as stem cell progenitors.

This study identifies BLJ, JKD, and SCR transcription factors as regulators of quiescent center function and vascular patterning in plant roots, with CBF3 mediating some of their effects.
