  bibo_abstract:
  - In plants, the patterning of stem cell-enriched meristems requires a graded auxin
    response maximum that emerges from the concerted action of polar auxin transport,
    auxin biosynthesis, auxin metabolism, and cellular auxin response machinery. However,
    mechanisms underlying this auxin response maximum-mediated root stem cell maintenance
    are not fully understood. Here, we present unexpected evidence that WUSCHEL-RELATED
    HOMEOBOX 5 (WOX5) transcription factor modulates expression of auxin biosynthetic
    genes in the quiescent center (QC) of the root and thus provides a robust mechanism
    for the maintenance of auxin response maximum in the root tip. This WOX5 action
    is balanced through the activity of indole-3-acetic acid 17 (IAA17) auxin response
    repressor. Our combined genetic, cell biology, and computational modeling studies
    revealed a previously uncharacterized feedback loop linking WOX5-mediated auxin
    production to IAA17-dependent repression of auxin responses. This WOX5-IAA17 feedback
    circuit further assures the maintenance of auxin response maximum in the root
    tip and thereby contributes to the maintenance of distal stem cell (DSC) populations.
    Our experimental studies and in silico computer simulations both demonstrate that
    the WOX5-IAA17 feedback circuit is essential for the maintenance of auxin gradient
    in the root tip and the auxin-mediated root DSC differentiation.@eng
