The paper shows that auxin distribution is not required for initial embryonic patterning in Arabidopsis, as differential phosphorylation of AUX/IAA8 by MPK6 sets up the apical-basal axis.

This paper establishes FLIM-Phasor as a versatile tool for multiplexing and label-free imaging in plant cells, enabling discrimination of fluorophores and endogenous fluorescence.

This paper identifies a phosphorylation mechanism controlled by the ERECTA receptor and auxin signaling that regulates stem cell activity and vascular cell differentiation in plants.

This study identifies MYB36 subclade transcription factors as regulators of cork differentiation by promoting suberin deposition and repressing cork cambium proliferation.

This study identifies MYB68 as a regulator of pole-specific endodermal differentiation and suberin patterning in Arabidopsis roots, revealing insights into passage cell function and radial endodermal organization.

The paper shows that variations in bHLH heterodimer complexes regulate cell proliferation in different plant meristems by affecting target gene specificity.
