The Arabidopsis root has been the subject of intense research over the past decades. This
research has led to significantly improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms …

A classical role of the hormone auxin is in the formation of flowers at the periphery of the
reproductive shoot apex. Mutants in regulators of polar auxin transport or in the auxin-…

The switch to reproductive development is biphasic in many plants, a feature important for
optimal pollination and yield. We show that dual opposite roles of the phytohormone …

The transition from vegetative growth to flower formation is critical for the survival of flowering
plants. The plant-specific transcription factor LEAFY (LFY) has central, evolutionarily …

The timing of the switch from vegetative to reproductive development is crucial for species
survival. The plant-specific transcription factor and meristem identity regulator LEAFY (LFY) …

The ability of proteins to associate with genomic DNA in the context of chromatin is critical for
many nuclear processes including transcription, replication, recombination, and DNA repair…

Tissue patterns are dynamically maintained. Continuous formation of plant tissues during
postembryonic growth requires asymmetric divisions and the specification of cell lineages. We …

Understanding plant gene promoter architecture has long been a challenge due to the lack
of relevant large-scale data sets and analysis methods. Here, we present a publicly available…

10.7554/eLife.14770.001 To understand complex regulatory processes in multicellular
organisms, it is critical to be able to quantitatively analyze protein movement and protein-protein …

Two key regulators of the switch to flower formation and of flower patterning in Arabidopsis
are the plant‐specific helix‐turn‐helix transcription factor LEAFY ( LFY ) and the MADS box …
