• Root and shoot glucosinolates: a comparison of their diversity, function and interactions in natural and managed ecosystems (2008, background): “0034), which may be due to the fact that actively growing root tips produce high levels of the biosynthetically closely related IAA (Grieneisen et al. 2007).”
• Auxin control of root development. (2010, background): “Both experimental data (Blilou et al. 2005) and computer modeling (Grieneisen et al. 2007; Laskowski et al. 2008) highlight the importance of auxin distribution and the accompanying gradients in PLT gene expression.”
• Plant hormones are versatile chemical regulators of plant growth. (2009, background): “Already robust models for auxin-dependent regulation of shoot and root growth have been develope”
• Auxin: the looping star in plant development. (2008, background): “Taking into account the interdependence of PIN and PLT genes, this model implies the existence of a regulatory loop that sets up an auxin gradient, which is self-regulating because PLT transcription factors subsequently regulate the expression of PINs (3, 17, 48).”
• Control of Arabidopsis root development. (2012, background): “However, auxin is thought to accumulate mainly in the primary root tip by polar transport from the shoot, largely via the action of directional transporters such as the PINs (17, 56, 60).”
• TAA1-mediated auxin biosynthesis is essential for hormone crosstalk and plant development. (2008, background): “Although active auxin transport is required and theoretically sufficient to keep these gradients (Grieneisen et al., 2007; Xu et al., 2006), it is less clear how they originate.”
• Auxin biosynthesis and its role in plant development (2010, background): “The location of auxin biosynthesis has been regarded as unimportant, and in some cases irrelevant (25).”

• Auxin–Cytokinin Interaction Regulates Meristem Development (2011, neutral): “Studies have shown that WOX5 (expressed in the QC cells) and PLTs (expressed in the stem cells surrounding the QC), major regulators of stem-cell formation and maintenance, act downstream of auxin signaling for the maintenance of distal stem-cell activity.”
• Root System Architecture from Coupling Cell Shape to Auxin Transport (2008, neutral): “Immersing the in silico root segment in auxin [2] provokes increases in the accumulation levels.”
