GNOM controls both auxin transport and auxin signaling to coordinate tissue cell polarity during vein patterning in plants.

The system that controls gene expression by the plant signaling molecule auxin has deep evolutionary roots, and stepwise increases in system complexity shaped the highly diverse auxin response in land plants.

Signals from major hormones and the environment are integrated in the Arabidopsis hypocotyl to control gene expression and plant stem elongation.

HEC transcription factors control the timing of cell fate transitions in a dynamic stem cell system, allowing plants to adapt their developmental program to diverse environments.

Mutant and gene expression analyses shows that phytohormones and mobile transcription factors interact to coordinate organ formation with stem cell maintenance in the plant shoot meristem.

The nuclear pathway for auxin perception is responsible for the rapid auxin-induced cell wall acidification and growth of aerial organs of plants.

Auxin binding to the ETTIN transcription factor disrupts the interaction between ETT and a TPL/TPR co-repressor and subsequently affects chromatin dynamics to ensure proper gynoecium development.

Vacuolar morphologenesis correlates with cell size and is required for auxin-dependent inhibition of growth.

Auxin is produced in the endosperm after fertilization and drives the development of the seed coat in Arabidopsis.

Multicellular systems exhibiting a wide variety of behaviors, including logic gates, band-pass filtering, and bistability, are constructed from a fixed vocabulary of input-output strains through model-guided design demonstrating predictable composability, tunability, and extendability.
