  text: Adaptive plant development is orchestrated, among others, by directional,
    intercellular transport of the phytohormone auxin. Self-organizing development,
    such as flexible vasculature formation, depends on so-called auxin canalization,
    manifested by the gradual formation of auxin transport channels through feedback
    between auxin signalling and transport. Herein, we identify MAKR6 as an important,
    novel component in this feedback. MAKR6 expression accumulates strongly in vascular
    cells and is tightly regulated by auxin via the Aux/IAA-ARF-WRKY23 transcriptional
    network. MAKR6 is required for auxin canalization-dependent processes, including
    leaf venation, vasculature regeneration, and de novo auxin channel formation from
    local auxin sources. Mechanistically, MAKR6 interacts with the PIN1 auxin transporter,
    modulating its trafficking and polarization. MAKR6 also associates with and integrates
    two key receptor-like kinase complexes involved in canalization, TMK1/4 and the
    CAMEL-CANAR. Together, our study establishes MAKR6 as a multifaceted regulator
    that couples transcriptional auxin signalling to PIN1 repolarization and coordinates
    multiple RLK-mediated signalling pathways during canalization. This provides mechanistic
    insights into auxin canalization and exemplifies a framework for exploring similar
    regulatory nodes in other developmental contexts.

  text: Auxin canalization is a self-organizing process that governs the flexible
    formation of vasculature by reinforcing the formation of auxin transport channels.
    A key prerequisite is the feedback between auxin signaling and directional auxin
    transport, mediated by PIN transporters. Despite the developmental importance
    of canalization, the molecular components linking auxin perception to the regulation
    of PIN auxin transporters remain poorly understood. Here, we identify TOW, a novel
    and essential component of auxin canalization that links intracellular auxin signaling
    with cell surface auxin perception. TOW is regulated downstream of TIR1/AFB-Aux/IAA-WRKY23
    transcriptional auxin signaling. tow mutants exhibit defects in regeneration and
    de novo vasculature formation, along with impaired formation of polarized, PIN-expressing
    auxin channels. At the subcellular level, these mutants display disrupted auxin-induced
    PIN polarization and altered PIN endocytic trafficking dynamics. TOW localizes
    predominantly to the plasma membrane, where it interacts with receptor-like kinases
    involved in auxin canalization, including the TMK1 auxin co-receptor and the CAMEL-CANAR
    complex. TOW promotes PIN interaction with these kinases and stabilizes PINs at
    the cell surface. Together, our findings identify TOW as a molecular link between
    intracellular and cell surface auxin signaling mechanisms that converge on PIN
    trafficking and polarity, providing new insights into how auxin signaling regulates
    directional auxin transport for the self-organizing formation of vasculature during
    flexible plant development.

  text: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated in multiple signaling processes
    in plants, but the underlying mechanisms and roles remain enigmatic. In this study,
    we developed a method of live imaging of apoplastic ROS at the root surface. Distinct
    signals, including auxin, extracellular adenosine triphosphate, and rapid alkalinization
    factor 1 peptide, induce cytosolic calcium transients and apoplastic ROS bursts.
    Genetic and optogenetic manipulations of Arabidopsis identified calcium transients
    as necessary and sufficient for ROS bursts through activation of reduced nicotinamide
    adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases RBOHC and RBOHF. Apoplastic ROS
    bursts are not required, but they do limit gravity-induced root bending. Root
    bending is sensed by the stretch-activated calcium channel MCA1, leading to NADPH
    oxidase activation. The resulting ROS production stiffens cell walls to facilitate
    soil penetration. Apoplastic ROS thus provides a means to balance tissue flexibility
    and stiffness to navigate soil.

  text: 'Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a fundamental second messenger involved
    in diverse signaling pathways across both animals and plants. While the role of
    3′,5′-cAMP has been extensively characterized, the biological significance of
    its structural isomer, 2′,3′-cAMP, remains largely unexplored, particularly in
    plants. Here, we show that 2′,3′-cAMP and 3′,5′-cAMP represent parallel signaling
    systems in Arabidopsis thaliana, with different enzymatic origins and largely
    distinct downstream effects. In vitro enzymatic assays show that plant adenylate
    cyclases (ACs), including AFB5 and HpAC1, produce specifically 3′,5′-cAMP from
    ATP, whereas the TIR domain of protein L7 also catalyzes the formation of 2′,3′-cAMP
    from RNA. Comprehensive multiomics analyses reveal that two isomers elicit distinct
    yet partially overlapping metabolic, proteomic, and transcriptional response:
    2′,3′-cAMP activates broad, stress-adaptive gene expression reprogramming, while
    3′,5′-cAMP fine-tunes responses related to nutrient status and cellular homeostasis.
    Our findings establish the existence of dual cAMP signaling systems in plants,
    each with specialized functions and provide insights into the complex regulatory
    networks governing plant physiology.'

  text: In order to cope with arid terrestrial environments, angiosperms have evolved
    a unique fertilization way—siphonogamy. The success of siphonogamy requires several
    prerequisites, including the normal development of the female gametophyte and
    male gametophyte (pollen). Appropriate pollination methods ensure the successful
    encounter between pollen and the stigma. After pollen lands on the stigma, pollen/pollen
    tube interacts with different tissues and cells of the pistil, completing a series
    of male-female communications. The smooth progress of these interactions ensures
    that the pollen tube can enter the female gametophyte, burst, and release sperm
    cells to complete the double fertilization. In this chapter, we provide an overview
    of pollination and the interactions between male and female, comprehensively summarizing
    the factors involved in these processes.

  text: Auxin, primarily indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is a central regulator of growth
    and development in land plants, but its physiological role in chlorophyte algae
    remains unclear. Here, we show that exogenous IAA modulates growth in Chlorella
    sorokiniana, Chlorella variabilis, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in a concentration-dependent
    manner. Low IAA concentrations promoted growth by accelerating the onset of cell
    division without affecting cell size, whereas higher concentrations inhibited
    proliferation. Radiotracer assays showed that all three species take up and release
    IAA across the plasma membrane through a combination of passive diffusion and
    energy-dependent, saturable processes. Competition by excess unlabeled natural
    and synthetic auxins further supported the presence of carrier-mediated transport
    with broad substrate recognition. Phylogenetic analyses identified potential PIN-like
    auxin exporters in chlorophytes and other non-plant eukaryotes, and structural
    modeling supported conservation of the overall PIN fold and predicted auxin-binding
    residues. However, functional assays in Xenopus laevis oocytes, tobacco BY-2 cultured
    cells, and Arabidopsis thaliana did not support a role for these proteins in directional
    auxin export. Instead, non-plant PIN homologs localized predominantly to the endoplasmic
    reticulum and showed limited or no transport activity in heterologous systems.
    Together, these findings indicate that auxin responsiveness and basic cellular
    auxin transport predate canonical PIN-mediated directional auxin export, which
    appears to be a later innovation of the streptophyte lineage.

  text: Gravitropism is a fundamental adaptive response in plants that enables directional
    growth to optimize resource acquisition. In this study, we employed forward genetic
    screening to identify Arabidopsis mutants with defective hypocotyl gravitropism
    and isolated the short and agravitropic hypocotyl in dark1 (sad1) mutant, which
    carries a point mutation (G110E) in the SAC1 gene encoding a phosphoinositide
    phosphatase. Deficiency of SAC1 disrupted gravity-induced polar localization of
    PIN3 in endodermal cells, impairing auxin redistribution and leading to hypocotyl
    gravitropism defects. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that SAC1 is
    partially localized to the PVC/tonoplast and participates in late endosomal trafficking.
    The sac1 mutation leads to abnormal vacuolar morphology, which is associated with
    defects in amyloplast sedimentation during the gravitropic response in Arabidopsis
    shoots. We further revealed that SAC1 interacts with GRV2, a key regulator of
    the late endocytic pathway, and that both proteins cooperatively regulate shoot
    gravitropism. In summary, this study identified SAC1 as a regulator of shoot gravitropism,
    revealing its important role in modulating vacuolar homeostasis, amyloplast sedimentation,
    PIN3 trafficking, and auxin distribution. These findings provide insights into
    the molecular mechanisms linking membrane transport to environmental adaptation
    in plants.

  text: The canonical mechanism by which the phytohormone auxin regulates transcription
    has been one of the cornerstones of plant signaling. The recent unexpected discovery
    of cyclic AMP (cAMP) as a second messenger in this pathway has revised its foundations

  text: The versatile and pivotal roles of the phytohormone auxin in regulating plant
    growth and development are typically linked to its directional transport, relying
    on the polarized PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin exporters at the plasma membrane (PM).
    For decades, auxin has been proposed to promote PIN polarization, generating self-regulatory
    feedback mediating much of plant development, but mechanistic insight into this
    regulation is lacking. Here, we uncover an auxin-induced protein complex at the
    PM, containing auxin co-receptors transmembrane kinases (TMKs) and PIN1 auxin
    exporter, as the core machinery that underlies this feedback regulation. Auxin
    promotes PIN1 phosphorylation by TMKs, modulating PIN1 polarization and transport
    activity. We also provide evidence that PIN1-exported extracellular auxin is crucial
    for TMK activation and cell elongation, thus forming the simplest two-element
    self-regulatory feedback circuit. Thus, these findings offer direct mechanistic
    insights into a potential self-organizing circuit for auxin signaling and transport
    to ensure proper plant development in Arabidopsis.

  text: 'Embryogenesis in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana provides a framework
    for understanding how cell polarity and patterning coordinate with hormonal signalling
    to establish the plant body plan. Following fertilisation, the zygote divides
    asymmetrically to generate apical and basal lineages, establishing the apical–basal
    axis that defines future shoot and root poles. Genetic and molecular analyses
    of classical mutants including gnom, monopteros (mp), bodenlos (bdl) and topless
    revealed that localised auxin biosynthesis, directional transport and downstream
    transcriptional responses are central to apical–basal axis establishment and organ
    initiation. The main components of this regulation are polarly localised PIN auxin
    transporters and downstream modules involving MONOPTEROS and WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX
    transcription factors. Advances in microscopy have transformed the study of Arabidopsis
    embryogenesis: fluorescence-compatible clearing reagents and three-dimensional
    reconstructions now permit quantitative analyses of cell geometry, division orientation,
    and cytoskeletal dynamics. Live ovule imaging setups with confocal laser scanning
    and multiphoton microscopes enable real-time observation of embryo development,
    while laser-assisted cell ablation can be used to probe cell-to-cell communication
    and fate plasticity. Together, these methodological breakthroughs position Arabidopsis
    embryos as a prime model for dissecting the chemical and biophysical cues that
    shape plant development.'

  text: "Within the plant endomembrane system, the vesicle coat protein clathrin localizes
    to the plasma membrane (PM) and the trans-Golgi Network/early endosome (TGN/EE).
    While the role of clathrin in endocytosis at the PM is well established, its function
    at TGN/EE, presumably in late secretion (trafficking from the TGN/EE to the cell
    surface) or en route to the vacuole, is debated. Similarly debated are potential
    homeostatic mechanisms balancing the trafficking routes, especially endocytosis
    and late secretion.\r\nWe address these questions in Arabidopsis thaliana using
    conditional silencing of CLATHRIN HEAVY CHAIN (CHC), conditional overexpression
    of the clathrin uncoating factor AUXILIN-LIKE1, and secretory mutants.\r\nCHC
    silencing interferes with trafficking of cargoes destined for the apoplast and
    the PM, supporting a function of clathrin in late secretion. The secretory cargoes
    become abnormally rerouted from the TGN/EE to the vacuole. Unlike CHC silencing,
    overexpression of AUXILIN-LIKE1 selectively inhibits clathrin-mediated endocytosis
    while secretion continues normally at early points of induction. Conversely, secretory
    mutants exhibit a reduced PM recruitment of clathrin, and variably, of the TPLATE
    endocytic component.\r\nTogether, our data show a role of clathrin in secretion
    and suggest secretion as a fundamental trafficking process to which endocytosis
    is adjusted by a weak homeostatic mechanism."

  text: Plant tropisms enable roots to navigate complex soils by responding to directional
    environmental cues. Biological decay, although central to nutrient cycling, also
    creates microbially active and potentially hostile niches. In this work, we identified
    “saprotropism,” a previously unrecognized growth response that enables roots to
    actively bend away from decaying plant-derived matter. Fungal-driven microbial
    decomposition released organic acids and formed stable pH gradients in surrounding
    soil, allowing roots to pinpoint decay without direct contact. Root epidermal
    cells sensed this acidic gradient through the root meristem growth factor peptide-receptor
    module, converting external pH asymmetry into asymmetric abscisic acid (ABA) distribution.
    ABA asymmetry drove microtubule reorganization, which was decoded into decay-avoidant
    root bending. Together, these findings establish microbial decay–derived chemical
    gradients as an instructive signal for root navigation and expand the framework
    of microbe-soil-plant communication.

  text: Ginseng (Panax ginseng) derives its renowned therapeutic properties from ginsenoside
    metabolites. However, the long cultivation cycle and susceptibility to diseases
    hinder the advancement of the ginseng industry. Here, we demonstrate that the
    embryonic protoderm of ginseng can efficiently produce ginsenosides. Single-cell
    transcriptome and mass spectrometry imaging analyses reveal that ginsenosides
    accumulate in the protoderm of ginseng embryonic callus (EC) at levels comparable
    to those in forest ginseng. Epigenetic analyses indicate that elevated histone
    acetylation and enhanced chromatin accessibility at regeneration- and ginsenoside
    metabolism-related gene loci are associated with the ginsenoside-producing capacity
    of EC. Increasing histone acetylation levels or overexpressing the regeneration-related
    WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX11 (WOX11) gene further enhances ginsenoside production
    in EC. Our findings suggest that the protoderm of EC could serve as an in situ
    biological compartment for high-efficiency ginsenoside producion, offering a complementary
    approach to traditional ginseng cultivation.

  text: Plant cells respond to a wide range of stimuli through intracellular calcium
    (Ca2+) signaling. Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGCs) are a major class of
    plant Ca2+ channels, with 20 homologs in Arabidopsis. These tetrameric plasma
    membrane proteins act downstream of diverse signals, such as phytohormones, extracellular
    damage, cell wall integrity or temperature. Here, we identify a class of plant-specific
    proteins, Armadillo Repeat Only (ARO), as essential regulators of possibly all
    plant CNGCs. Abrogation of functional sporophytic AROs results in a phenotypic
    pattern strongly reminiscent of CNGC dysfunction, including defects in root gravitropism,
    root hair growth and morphology, stomatal movement, and responses to extracellular
    ATP and the phytohormone auxin. aro2/3/4 mutants are fully resistant to the toxic
    effects caused by overexpression of CNGCs. AROs colocalize and physically interact
    with multiple CNGCs and modulate CNGC-dependent currents in Xenopus oocytes. Structural
    modeling and site-directed mutagenesis reveal AROs tetramer formation surrounding
    the CNGC channel, interacting via its IQ domain. Taken together, plant CNGC channels
    don’t act alone, but in a larger complex - channelosome, first of a kind in plants.

  text: The plant hormone auxin regulates growth and development through at least
    two distinct signaling pathways. The nuclear pathway, involving TIR1/AFB receptors,
    mediates transcription; whereas the cell surface ABP1-TMK1 auxin perception triggers
    global ultrafast phosphorylation response. Here, we revisit the rich history of
    the disputed ABP1 auxin receptor, highlighting recent findings of the involvement
    of TMKs and other molecular components and focusing on their role in auxin canalization-mediated
    development.

  text: As an important plant hormone to regulate growth and development, auxin has
    been investigated for more than a century. It had been clearly demonstrated and
    well-accepted that the intracellular auxin receptors, TIR1/AFBs, are F-box proteins
    mediating transcriptional auxin signaling by their E3 ubiquitin ligase activity,
    which targets and sends for degradation the Aux/IAA transcriptional repressors.
    The recent discovery of adenylate cyclase (AC) and guanylate cyclase (GC) activities
    for TIR1/AFBs open entirely new perspectives on how auxin signaling can operate.
    This chapter traces back the history of how canonical transcriptional auxin signaling
    was established and introduces the discovery of the TIR1/AFBs-mediated nontranscriptional
    signaling branch. Finally, the current understanding and open questions of how
    TIR1/AFBs’ AC and GC activities contribute to the transcriptional and nontranscriptional
    auxin signaling are discussed, highlighting the possibility that cyclic adenosine
    monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) act as second messengers
    in auxin signal transduction.

  text: Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroidal phytohormones indispensable for plant
    growth, development, and responses to environmental stresses. The export of bioactive
    BRs to the apoplast is essential for BR signalling initiation, which requires
    binding of BR molecule to the extracellular domains of the plasma membrane-localized
    receptor complex. We have previously shown that the Arabidopsis thaliana ATP-binding
    cassette (ABC) transporter, ABCB19, functions as a BR exporter, and together with
    its close homologue, ABCB1, positively regulate BR signalling. Here, we demonstrate
    that ABCB1 is another BR transporter. The ATP hydrolysis activity of ABCB1 was
    stimulated by bioactive BRs, and its transport activity was confirmed in proteoliposomes
    and protoplasts. Structures of ABCB1 in substrate-unbound (apo), brassinolide
    (BL)-bound, and ATP plus BL-bound states were determined. In the BL-bound structure,
    BL was bound to the hydrophobic cavity formed by the transmembrane domain, and
    triggered local conformational changes. Together, our data provide additional
    insights into the ABC transporter-mediated BR export.

  text: 'Super-resolution methods provide far better spatial resolution than the optical
    diffraction limit of about half the wavelength of light (∼200-300 nm). Nevertheless,
    they have yet to attain widespread use in plants, largely due to plants’ challenging
    optical properties. Expansion microscopy improves effective resolution by isotropically
    increasing the physical distances between sample structures while preserving relative
    spatial arrangements and clearing the sample. However, its application to plants
    has been hindered by the rigid, mechanically cohesive structure of plant tissues.
    Here, we report on whole-mount expansion microscopy of thale cress (Arabidopsis
    thaliana) root tissues (PlantEx), achieving a four-fold resolution increase over
    conventional microscopy. Our results highlight the microtubule cytoskeleton organization
    and interaction between molecularly defined cellular constituents. Combining PlantEx
    with stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy, we increase nanoscale resolution
    and visualize the complex organization of subcellular organelles from intact tissues
    by example of the densely packed COPI-coated vesicles associated with the Golgi
    apparatus and put these into a cellular structural context. Our results show that
    expansion microscopy can be applied to increase effective imaging resolution in
    Arabidopsis root specimens. '
