Signaling and Transport of Auxin and Plant Development

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Polar Auxin Transport

Part of the book series: Signaling and Communication in Plants ((SIGCOMM,volume 17))

  • 1989 Accesses

Abstract

The past decades have seen tremendous progress in our understanding of the role of polar auxin transport (PAT) in diverse plant developmental processes and growth responses to biotic and abiotic signals. These studies have been made possible by the advanced molecular and genetic tools developed in the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana. As other model genetic organisms have been developed, the regulatory mechanisms of polar auxin transport in plant development have been investigated in other plant lineages with interesting biological processes. This chapter reviews the current progress in understanding of the role and the mechanisms of PAT in several model species.
