ANAC032 regulates root growth through the MYB30 gene regulatory network.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles as root growth regulators. We previously reported a comprehensive transcriptomic atlas, which we named ROS-map, that revealed ROS-responsible genes in Arabidopsis root tips. By using ROS-map, we have characterised an early ROS response key transcription factor, MYB30, as a regulator of root cell elongation under ROS signals.

MYB30 regulates root cell elongation under abscisic acid signaling.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and plant hormones play important roles in regulating plant growth and stress responses as signaling molecules. Abscisic acid (ABA) is known as the key regulator of both abiotic and biotic stress responses. During stress responses, ABA is known to regulate ROS production, indicating that important crosstalk occurs between ROS and ABA signaling.

MYB30 links ROS signaling, root cell elongation, and plant immune responses.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to be important signal molecules that are involved in biotic and abiotic stress responses as well as in growth regulation. However, the molecular mechanisms by which ROS act as a growth regulator, as well as how ROS-dependent growth regulation relates to its roles in stress responses, are not well understood. We performed a time-course microarray analysis of root tips upon treatment with hydrogen peroxide, which we named "ROS-map.
