Scientists have shown that two previously separate modes of plant branching regulation can be connected, revealing the most complete picture yet of how plants control their architecture. Subscribe to ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract In both Chamaedorea seifrizii Burret and C. cataractarum Martius each adult foliage leaf subtends one axillary bud. The proximal buds in C.

Auxins, cytokinins and strigolactones are three classes of hormones that regulate bud activation and thereby regulate shoot branching. These hormones are transported throughout the plant, forming a ...

A new study reveals the critical role of the WRKY-B transcription factor in regulating lateral branch development in tomato plants. Scientists demonstrated that WRKY-B modulates branch initiation and ...

A. These so called “suckers” are not technically suckers but actually are buds that develop in the axil of leaves (axillary buds), at the nodes of developing tomato stems. If allowed to develop, they ...

Axillary buds are located at the base of each leaf. Initially dormant, each can grow into a branch. To study how branching is regulated by local signalling within each bud and by systemic signalling ...
