Regulation of plant growth and development by auxin is mediated by the hormone controlled distribution and dose-dependent mechanisms of its action. A mathematical model is proposed, which described the distribution of auxin in the cells extending along the central axis of the Arabidopsis thaliana root. This model reproduces qualitatively both auxin distribution in cells of the root central axis under the normal conditions and under the conditions of decreased active transport and the recovery of auxin distribution and related meristem restoration during root regeneration after ablation of its tip. Different types of distribution of the auxin concentration over the vertical root axis are described, possible variants of root growth and lateral roots formation are proposed, and biological interpretation is given to different regimes of model behavior.

Genome-wide collections of yeast strains, known as libraries, revolutionized the way systematic studies are carried out. Specifically, libraries that involve a cellular perturbation, such as the deletion collection, have facilitated key biological discoveries. However, short-term rewiring and long-term accumulation of suppressor mutations often obscure the functional consequences of such perturbations.

Apical hook opening is crucial for seedling establishment and is regulated by unequal distribution of the hormone auxin through unknown mechanisms. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Walia et al. demonstrate that apical hook opening is an output of tissue-wide forces; auxin and cell wall integrity (CWI) signaling interact to restrict elongation to the concave side of the apical hook.

The termination of floral meristem (FM) activity is essential for the normal development of reproductive floral organs. During this process, KNUCKLES (KNU), a C2H2-type zinc finger protein, crucially regulates FM termination by directly repressing the expression of both the stem cell identity gene WUSCHEL (WUS) and the stem cell marker gene CLAVATA3 (CLV3) to abolish the WUS-CLV3 feedback loop required for FM maintenance. In addition, phytohormones auxin and cytokinin are involved in FM regulation.
