CEP peptide and cytokinin pathways converge on CEPD glutaredoxins to inhibit root growth
Abstract
C-terminally encoded peptide (CEP) and cytokinin (CK) hormones modulate plant root architecture in response to environmental cues. The results show that CEP and CK pathways utilise CEPD glutaredoxins in separate organs to curb primary root growth.
