Auxin is a naturally occurring plant hormone. It is produced at the tip of growing shoots and roots. It is a growth hormone and promotes cell elongation.
Growth form is mainly determined by woodiness and the direction and extent of growth, and any branching of the main shoot axis or axes. Categories: bamboo graminoid, climber, fern, herbaceous graminoid, herbaceous non-graminoid, herbaceous non-graminoid/shrub, succulent, shrub, shrub/tree, tree...
All experimental plants were labeled at the rosette stage in the vegetative growth phase before initiation of flowering and watered the day before labeling experiments. Inhibitor treatments Various inhibitor treatments were applied to plants to determine the impact of pharmacological blocks of selected ...
Step-by-Step Solution:1. Understanding Essential Elements: Essential elements are those that are crucial for the plant's growth, metabolism, and overall survival. They play specific roles in physiological proce
Al is one of the highly abundant elements in the earth crust and under low pH conditions (acidic soils), it is solubilised in the soil in a toxic ionic form that inhibits root elongation. The primary response of plants to Al toxicity is the rapid inhibition of root growth, particularly ...
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are well-known proteolytic enzymes in animal systems and play roles in tissue differentiation, growth, and defence. Although a few plant MMPs have been reported, their exact functions in development and growth remain elusive. In this study, we characterized the promot...
In these areas, seasonal droughts coincide with the grapevine growing season (e.g., Mediterranean to semi-arid climates) [1], and the most important factor limiting grapevine growth in the Mediterranean is water stress [2]. In such areas, the combined effect of prolonged or recurrent drought ...

Iron constitutes an indispensable plant nutrient and severe deficiencies cause leaves to turn completely yellow or almost white, which in turn strongly impairs plant growth and leads to high yield losses [3, 5]. This furthermore, influences nutritional crop quality and impacts on economic aspects ...
Cellular differentiation, in contrast, occurs in response to the balance of growth regulators in the culture medium and ultimately leads to organogenesis. This transition involves cell fate decisions and eventual exit from the cell cycle. Both dedifferentiation and differentiation involve changes in ...
