Does reducing the number of auxin components limit the number of auxin responses? Does it change the kinetics? More importantly, would you be motivated to find out?

Duckweeds are free-floating angiosperms that have lost many developmental features, including apical growth, root hairs, root branching, and, in some cases, the ability to produce a root. This is coupled with a reduced number of auxin signalling components.

We've been really excited to see the interest in our recent paper about duckweed root vestigiality. It's a privilege to feature in the PNAS Front Matter journal club. Thank you @amygmcdermott for writing such an inspiring piece. pnas.org/post/journal-c…

What sets them apart from snakes and cavefish, is that many of the intermediate forms are still alive today. This makes them ideal models to understand root loss, and we are starting to look at the molecular mechanisms that underpin this.

What do snakes, cavefish and duckweed have in common? They are now all models for understanding organ loss. Inspired by research on limblessness in snakes and vision loss in cavefish, we examined root loss in duckweed. Paper here: doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.… in @CurrentBiology.

There have been so many crucial roles identified for AHP6, but we didn't have any idea if the psuedo phosphotransfer proteins had any role in other species. In this collaboration with Joe Kieber's lab we show functionally diverged roles for PHPs in rice. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/tp…

The volatile plant hormone ethylene allows plant roots to sense & avoid compacted soils, researchers report in Science. The findings reveal how plants regulate their growth in response to soil compaction—a growing challenge facing modern agriculture. ($) fcld.ly/mr4r1hl

We had a beautiful hypothesis about how auxin triggers root regeneration. It flows down from the stele and because it can't flow back when you cut the root it forms a new auxin peak. A simple and beautiful self-repair mechanism. The only problem was that it was wrong...
