Guanylate cyclase activity of TIR1/AFB auxin receptors in rapid auxin responses
Auxin is a pleiotropic plant hormone with diverse functions, many of which are mediated through transcriptional reprograming. However, some auxin responses occur extremely rapidly, ruling out changes in transcription as a mechanism. In 2022, one of the components of an auxin receptor, F-box protein TIR1/AFB,…
No auxin signaling, no organogenesis
Suzuki et al. examine the effects of auxin signaling on development of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.

Background: Land plants alternate diploid (2n) and haploid (n) generations. The plant hormone auxin regulates…
