Phosphorus is a growth-limiting nutrient for plants. The use of phosphate (Pi) fertiliser is unsustainable because its stocks are non-renew-able and the run-off of surplus fertiliser damages the environment.

Auxin fluxes through plasmodesmata modify root-tip auxin distribution (2020)

© 2020. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd. Auxin is a key signal regulating plant growth and development. It is well established that auxin dynamics depend on the spatial distribution of efflux and influx carriers on the cell membranes. In t...
