ARF transcription factors translate auxin signals into changes in gene expression. Discover how ARFs interact with AUX/IAA proteins and regulate roots, shoots, organ formation, phototropism, branching, and plant development.

Auxin signaling allows plant cells to translate hormone concentration into changes in gene expression, growth, and development. Discover how TIR1/AFB receptors, AUX/IAA proteins, ARF transcription factors, and hormone crosstalk regulate roots, shoots, phototropism, organ formation, and plant architecture.

Auxin transport allows plants to control where growth occurs by establishing directional hormone flows through their tissues. Discover how PIN proteins, auxin gradients, and polar auxin transport regulate root development, shoot growth, organ formation, branching, phototropism, and plant architecture.

Auxin and phototropism are closely connected processes that allow plants to adjust their growth direction in response to directional light. Discover how phototropins, auxin transport, asymmetric auxin distribution, and differential cell expansion work together to control plant bending and directional growth.

Phototropism allows plants to adjust their growth direction in response to directional light. Discover how phototropins detect blue light and regulate auxin distribution, differential cell expansion, and plant growth toward or away from light.

Cryptochromes are blue-light photoreceptors that help plants regulate growth, photomorphogenesis, flowering, circadian rhythms, and environmental responses. Discover how cryptochrome signaling interacts with phytochromes, PIFs, hormones, and the plant circadian clock.
