Figures & data

Fig. 1. A schematic model of auxin biosynthesis, inactivation, transport, and signal transduction in plants.

Notes: GH3: IAA-amino acid conjugate synthase, UGT: UDP-glucosyltransferase, IAMT: IAA-methyltransferase, and DAO: dioxygenase for auxin oxidation.

Fig. 2. A schematic model of the IAA biosynthetic pathways and secondary metabolic pathways in Arabidopsis.

Notes: The common Trp biosynthesis and IPA pathways are shown in blue, the IAOx pathway in Arabidopsis is shown in green, the IAM pathway is shown in purple, the TAM pathway is shown in gray, the Trp-independent pathway is shown in red, and secondary metabolite pathways in Arabidopsis are shown in brown. The IPA pathway that is highly conserved in land plants is enclosed in the box. Characterized enzyme reaction steps are in bold typeface. Enzyme reaction steps remaining to be clarified are shown by dashed arrows. TRP3/TSA1: Trp synthase α-subunit and TRP2/TSB1: Trp synthase β-subunit.

Notes: (A) Expression patterns of TAA1, YUC1-YUC5, YUC8, and YUC9 in Arabidopsis seedlings (Refs. Citation36, Citation42, Citation43). (B) YUC2, YUC3, and YUC4 expressions in pYUC2:GUS, pYUC3:GUS, and pYUC4:GUS, respectively (Refs. Citation42 and Citation43).
