[PDF][PDF] Cytokinins initiate secondary growth in the Arabidopsis root through a set of LBD genes

L Ye, X Wang, M Lyu, R Siligato, G Eswaran, L Vainio… - Current Biology, 2021 - cell.com
During primary growth, plant tissues increase their length, and as these tissues mature, they
initiate secondary growth to increase thickness. It is not known what activates this transition …

[HTML][HTML] Gibberellins promote polar auxin transport to regulate stem cell fate decisions in cambium

R Mäkilä, B Wybouw, O Smetana, L Vainio, A Solé-Gil… - Nature plants, 2023 - nature.com
Vascular cambium contains bifacial stem cells, which produce secondary xylem to one side
and secondary phloem to the other. However, how these fate decisions are regulated is …

Identification of cambium stem cell factors and their positioning mechanism

…, H Iida, J Lopez Ortiz, R Makila, B Wybouw, L Vainio… - bioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
Wood constitutes the majority of terrestrial biomass. Composed of xylem, it arises from one
