UNASSIGNED: We assessed hypocotyl growth at cellular resolution in Arabidopsis mutants defective in auxin transport and biosynthesis and we designed a mathematical auxin transport model based on known polar and non-polar auxin transporters (ABCB1, ABCB19, and PINs) and on factors that control auxin homeostasis in the hypocotyl. In addition, we introduced into the model biophysical properties of the cell types based on precise cell wall measurements.
UNASSIGNED: Our model can generate the observed cellular growth patterns based on auxin distribution along the hypocotyl resulting from production in the cotyledons, transport along the hypocotyl, and general turnover of auxin. These principles, which resemble the features of mathematical models of animal morphogen gradients, allow to generate robust shallow auxin gradients as they are expected to exist in tissues that exhibit quantitative auxin-driven tissue growth, as opposed to the sharp auxin maxima generated by patterning mechanisms in plant development.
■我们在生长素转运和生物合成缺陷的拟南芥突变体中评估了下胚轴生长的细胞分辨率,并基于已知的极性和非极性生长素转运蛋白(ABCB1,ABCB19和PIN)和控制下胚轴中生长素稳态的因素设计了一个数学生长素转运模型。此外,我们将基于精确细胞壁测量的细胞类型的生物物理特性引入模型。
■我们的模型可以基于子叶中产生的沿着下胚轴的生长素分布来生成观察到的细胞生长模式,沿着下胚轴运输,和生长素的一般营业额。这些原则,类似于动物形态发生梯度数学模型的特征,允许生成强大的浅层生长素梯度,因为它们预计存在于表现出定量生长素驱动的组织生长的组织中,与植物发育中模式机制产生的尖锐生长素最大值相反。
