{Reference Type}: Journal Article {Title}: Endoreplication controls cell size via mechanochemical signaling. {Author}: Bhosale R;Vissenberg K; {Journal}: Trends Plant Sci {Volume}: 28 {Issue}: 6 {Year}: 2023 06 {Factor}: 22.012 {DOI}: 10.1016/j.tplants.2023.03.016 {Abstract}: During hypocotyl development, an asymmetric auxin gradient causes differential cell elongation, leading to tissue bending and apical hook formation. Recently, Ma et al. identified a molecular pathway that links auxin with endoreplication and cell size through cell wall integrity sensing, cell wall remodeling, and regulation of cell wall stiffness.
