Signal integration in the control of shoot branching

Domagalska, Malgorzata A., Leyser, Ottoline·2011·Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology

Abstract

Shoot branching is a highly plastic developmental process in which axillary buds are formed in the axil of each leaf and may subsequently be activated to give branches. Three classes of plant hormones, auxins, cytokinins and strigolactones (or strigolactone derivatives) are central to the control of bud activation. These hormones move throughout the plant forming a network of systemic signals. The past decade brought great progress in understanding the mechanisms of shoot branching control. Biological and computational studies have led to the proposal of two models, the auxin transport canalization-based model and the second messenger model, which provide mechanistic explanations for apical dominance.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Auxin maintains RMS1 transcript levels, and hence SL synthesis, and down-regulates CK levels.

    “Auxin maintains RMS1 transcript levels, and hence SL synthesis, and down-regulates CK levels.”
  • SLs reduce PIN accumulation to the plasma membrane via RMS4 but independently of PsBRC1.

    “SLs reduce PIN accumulation to the plasma membrane via RMS4 but independently of PsBRC1 and, by reducing the effectiveness of the canalization feedback loop, enhance the competition between active buds.”
  • SLs, by reducing the effectiveness of the canalization feedback loop, enhance the competition between active buds.

    “SLs reduce PIN accumulation to the plasma membrane via RMS4 but independently of PsBRC1 and, by reducing the effectiveness of the canalization feedback loop, enhance the competition between active buds.”
  • The model that best fits the data would be one in which both regulatory systems coexist.

    “The model that best fits with our data would be one in which both regulatory systems, not mutually exclusive, as indicated previously (Domagalska and Leyser, 2011), would coexist (Fig. 6).”
  • Two models are currently proposed to explain how auxin and SLs interact to control branching: the auxin transport canalization model and the second messenger model.

    “Two models are currently proposed to explain how auxin and SLs interact to control branching: the auxin transport canalization model and the second messenger model (Brewer et al., 2009;Domagalska and Leyser, 2011).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
