Aphid Infestation Increases Fusarium langsethiae and T-2 and HT-2 Mycotoxins in Wheat (2016)
Journal Article
Drakulic, J., Ajigboye, O., Swarup, R., Bruce, T., & Ray, R. V. (2016). Aphid Infestation Increases Fusarium langsethiae and T-2 and HT-2 Mycotoxins in Wheat. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 82(22), 6548-6556. https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.02343-16

Fusarium langsethiae is a fungal pathogen of cereal crops that is an increasing problem in northern Europe, but much of its epidemiology is poorly understood. The species produces the mycotoxins T-2 and HT-2, which are highly toxic. It was hypothesiz... Read More about Aphid Infestation Increases Fusarium langsethiae and T-2 and HT-2 Mycotoxins in Wheat.

Lateral root emergence in Arabidopsis is dependent on transcription factor LBD29 regulation of auxin influx carrier LAX3 (2016)
Journal Article
Porco, S., Larrieu, A., Du, Y., Gaudinier, A., Goh, T., Swarup, K., …Bennett, M. J. (2016). Lateral root emergence in Arabidopsis is dependent on transcription factor LBD29 regulation of auxin influx carrier LAX3. Development, 143(18), 3340-3349. https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.136283

Lateral root primordia (LRP) originate from pericycle stem cells located deep within parental root tissues. LRP emerge through overlying root tissues by inducing auxin-dependent cell separation and hydraulic changes in adjacent cells. The auxin-induc...

Multi-omics analysis identifies genes mediating the extension of cell walls in the Arabidopsis thaliana root elongation zone (2015)
Journal Article
Wilson, M. H., Holman, T. J., Sørensen, I., Cancho-Sanchez, E., Wells, D. M., Swarup, R., …Hodgman, T. C. (2015). Multi-omics analysis identifies genes mediating the extension of cell walls in the Arabidopsis thaliana root elongation zone. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 3(FEB), Article 10. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2015.00010

Plant cell wall composition is important for regulating growth rates, especially in roots. However, neither analyses of cell wall composition nor transcriptomes on their own can comprehensively reveal which genes and processes are mediating growth an...

Auxin influx importers modulate serration along the leaf margin (2015)
Journal Article
Kasprzewska, A., Swarup, R., Carter, R., Bennett, M., Monk, N., Hobbs, J. K., & Fleming, A. (2015). Auxin influx importers modulate serration along the leaf margin. Plant Journal, 83(4), 705-718. https://doi.org/10.1111/tpj.12921

Leaf shape in Arabidopsis is modulated by patterning events in the margin that utilize a PIN‐based auxin exporter/CUC2 transcription factor system to define regions of promotion and retardation of growth, leading to morphogenesis. In addition to auxi... Read More about Auxin influx importers modulate serration along the leaf margin.

Plant embryogenesis requires AUX/LAX-mediated auxin influx (2015)
Journal Article
Robert, H. S., Grunewald, W., Sauer, M., Cannoot, B., Soriano, M., Swarup, R., …Friml, J. (2015). Plant embryogenesis requires AUX/LAX-mediated auxin influx. Development, 142(4), 702-711. https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.115832

The plant hormone auxin and its directional transport are known to play a crucial role in defining the embryonic axis and subsequent development of the body plan. Although the role of PIN auxin efflux transporters has been clearly assigned during emb... Read More about Plant embryogenesis requires AUX/LAX-mediated auxin influx.

Auxin is a key regulator of plant growth and development. Within the root tip, auxin distribution plays a crucial role specifying developmental zones and coordinating tropic responses. Determining how the organ-scale auxin pattern is regulated at the... Read More about Systems Analysis of Auxin Transport in the Arabidopsis Root Apex.

Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier Protein SUMO Enables Plants to Control Growth Independently of the Phytohormone Gibberellin (2014)
Journal Article
Conti, L., Nelis, S., Zhang, C., Woodcock, A., Swarup, R., Galbiati, M., …Sadanandom, A. (2014). Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier Protein SUMO Enables Plants to Control Growth Independently of the Phytohormone Gibberellin. Developmental Cell, 28(1), 102-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2013.12.004

Plants survive adverse conditions by modulating their growth in response to a changing environment. Gibberellins (GAs) play a key role in these adaptive responses by stimulating the degradation of growth-repressing DELLA proteins. GA binding to its r...
