Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Plants use variable molecules, such as phyto-hormone, proteins, peptides, as signaling molecules to transmit environmental information. It is crucial for plants to optimize their growth. The basic mechanisms underlying signaling pathways of plant hormones progressed rapidly in the last a few decades, however, the their actual modes in plants grown under natural conditions are poorly understood. In this study, as a first step, we asked whether the signals are transmitted between shoots.
