Journal Article
Taylor-Teeples, M., Lin, L., de Lucas, M., Turco, G., Toal, T., Gaudinier, A., …Brady, S. (2014). An Arabidopsis gene regulatory network for secondary cell wall synthesis. Nature, 517(7536), 571-575. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature14099

The plant cell wall is an important factor for determining cell shape, function and response to the environment. Secondary cell walls, such as those found in xylem, are composed of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin and account for the bulk of plan...

BR-dependent phosphorylation modulates PIF4 transcriptional activity and shapes diurnal hypocotyl growth (2014)
Journal Article
Bernardo-Garcia, S., de Lucas, M., Martinez, C., Davière, J., & Prat, S. (2014). BR-dependent phosphorylation modulates PIF4 transcriptional activity and shapes diurnal hypocotyl growth. Genes & Development, 28(15), 1681-1694. https://doi.org/10.1101/gad.243675.114

Signaling by the hormones brassinosteroid (BR) and gibberellin (GA) is critical to normal plant growth and development and is required for hypocotyl elongation in response to dark and elevated temperatures. Active BR signaling is essential for GA pro... Read More about BR-dependent phosphorylation modulates PIF4 transcriptional activity and shapes diurnal hypocotyl growth.

PIFs get BRright: PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORs as integrators of light and hormonal signals (2014)
Journal Article
de Lucas, M., & Prat, S. (2014). PIFs get BRright: PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORs as integrators of light and hormonal signals. New Phytologist, 202(4), 1126-1141. https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.12725

Light and temperature, in coordination with the endogenous clock and the hormones gibberellin (GA) and brassinosteroids (BRs), modulate plant growth and development by affecting the expression of multiple cell wall- and auxin-related genes. PHYTOCHRO... Read More about PIFs get BRright: PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORs as integrators of light and hormonal signals.
