Abstract:
<span style="\\"font-family:" times,="" serif;="" font-size:="" 14.6667px;="" text-align:="" justify;\\"="">hypocotyls. Furthermore, TCP4 modulates the common transcriptional network downstream to auxin-brassinosteroid signaling, which is also triggered by environmental cues, such as light, to promote cell expansion. Our study links TCP function with the hormone response during cell morphogenesis and shows that developmental and environmental signals converge on a common transcriptional network to promote cell elongation.
