This project investigates how specific genes influence the arrangement of plant organs, focusing on the role of the plant hormone auxin in organ positioning. Using a unique mutant of Arabidopsis, the research aims to uncover the regulatory mechanisms behind phyllotaxis, which is vital for understanding plant developmen…
The mathematical regularity of plant organ initiation, also known as phyllotaxis, has always intrigued mathematicians and botanists.
Only recently was established that the plant hormone auxin has a major role in regulating organ positioning at the shoot apex of plants.
Specific spatial accumulation of auxin induces organ formation and control organ spacing.
The current model for phyllotaxis relies on polar auxin transport via auxin efflux facilitators of the PIN family, and postulated positive f…
