Abstract excerpt
Plant development is regulated by both synergistic and antagonistic interactions of different phytohormones, including a complex crosstalk between ethylene and auxin. For instance, auxin and ethylene synergistically control primary root elongation and root hair formation. However, a lack of chemical agents that specifically modulate ethylene or auxin production has precluded precise delineation of the...
