A novel sensor to map auxin response and distribution at high spatio-temporal resolution (2012)
Journal Article
Brunoud, G., Wells, D. M., Oliva, M., Larrieu, A., Mirabet, V., Burrow, A. H., Beeckman, T., Kepinski, S., Traas, J., Bennett, M. J., & Vernoux, T. (2012). A novel sensor to map auxin response and distribution at high spatio-temporal resolution. Nature, 482(7383), 103-106. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature10791

Auxin is a key plant morphogenetic signal but tools to analyse dynamically its distribution and signalling during development are still limited. Auxin perception directly triggers the degradation of Aux/IAA repressor proteins. Here we describe a nove...

The auxin signalling network translates dynamic input into robust patterning at the shoot apex (2011)
Journal Article
Vernoux, T., Brunoud, G., Farcot, E., Morin, V., Van Den Daele, H., Legrand, J., Oliva, M., Das, P., Larrieu, A., Wells, D., Guédon, Y., Armitage, L., Picard, F., Guyomarc'H, S., Cellier, C., Parry, G., Koumproglou, R., Doonan, J. H., Estelle, M., Godin, C., …Traas, J. (2011). The auxin signalling network translates dynamic input into robust patterning at the shoot apex. Molecular Systems Biology, 7(1), Article 508. https://doi.org/10.1038/msb.2011.39

The plant hormone auxin is thought to provide positional information for patterning during development. It is still unclear, however, precisely how auxin is distributed across tissues and how the hormone is sensed in space and time. The control of ge...

Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses (2000)
Journal Article
Pearson, J., Wells, D. M., Seller, K. J., Bennett, A., Soares, A., Woodall, J., & Ingrouille, M. J. (2000). Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses. New Phytologist, 147(2), 317-326. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1469-8137.2000.00702.x

Mosses have been used as biomonitors of atmospheric pollution for some years, but few studies have been carried out on the effect of NO(x) emissions from traffic on moss tissue N. Eight species of moss (102 samples) growing on walls or roofs next to... Read More about Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses.
