The breakthrough, headed by Walter Gassmann and Jianbin Su, is the first step in better suiting plants for unstable weather.

Researchers Uncover Signalling Pathway Behind Nitrate-Stimulated Root

In a groundbreaking study that merges plant molecular biology with sustainable agriculture, researchers have unveiled a sophisticated feedback regulatory loop that profoundly influences root development in response to nitrate availability. This discovery, centered on the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana, elucidates a complex signalling cascade involving a kinase named MEKK14, the circadian-related transcription factor CCA1, and auxin, a pivot…
