Auxins control the growth of plants by promoting cell division and causing elongation in plant cells (the cells get longer).
Plant rejuvenation refers to the reversal of the adult phase in plants and the recovery of part or all of juvenile plant characteristics. The growth and reproductive vitality of plants can be increased after rejuvenation.

Hormones control important processes like germination, flower opening, dropping leaves, phototropism and geotropism. We use plant hormones in weedkillers, and to make seedless fruit and root...
It has been known for decades (if not centuries) that plants contain a range of compounds which have profound effects on many aspects of growth and developmental physiology, and act as a means of communication within the plant. These plant growth hormones, sometimes referred to as plant growth regulators, are still being discovered.

Only a few primary auxin-responsive gene promoters have been analyzed forcis-acting elements that confer auxin responsiveness. The most extensively studied auxin-responsive plant gene promoters are those from the pea PS-IAA4/5 gene (Ballas et al., 1993,1995), the soybean GH3 gene (Liu et al., 1994, 1997; Ulmasov et al., 1995), and the soybean SAUR1...
The structures of naturally occurring composite AuxREs suggest that they might function with a variety of different constitutive or coupling elements. Composite AuxREs could potentially confer a wide range of tissue-specific and developmentally regulated expression patterns, depending on the nature of the constitutive or coupling element that funct...
Results with the natural AuxREs in the soybean GH3promoter indicated that the TGTCTC element required a closely associated constitutive or coupling element to function as an AuxRE. The question remained, however, whether the TGTCTC element had intrinsic AuxRE activity if it was multimerized with appropriate spacing between TGTCTC repeats. Recent ex...
Some similarities between plant TGTCTC AuxREs and animal GREs or steroid HREs have been described previously (Ulmasov et al., 1997a;Guilfoyle et al., 1998). First, the TGTCTC AuxRE is similar in size and sequence to the GRE half-site TGTTCT. Second, both AuxREs and GREs or HREs may take the form of composite elements. For example, a composite GRE m...
Because simple TGTCTC AuxREs that display greater AuxRE activity than natural AuxREs can be designed, they have proven advantageous for identifying and cloning transcription factors involved in auxin-responsive gene expression. A highly active palindromic repeat of the TGTCTC element was used as bait in a yeast one-hybrid system along with an Arabi...
ARF1 represents one member of a family of proteins containing a highly conserved aminoterminal DNA-binding domain and a carboxyterminal domain related to domains III and IV in the Aux/IAA proteins. A total of nine full-length Arabidopsis cDNA clones encoding ARF proteins have been identified to date (Guilfoyle et al., 1998). The ARF proteins range ...

Feb 12, 2020 · In this review, we focus on interactions between two of the classical plant hormones, auxin and abscisic acid (ABA). Auxin is remarkable in that it is seemingly involved in the regulation of most plant growth and developmental responses .
