Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: This study reveals that plant roots show a rapid termination of autophagy induction, offering a plant model for studying how excessive autophagy is deterred. In eukaryotes, autophagy is an intracellular mechanism that is important for recycling nutrients by degrading various macromolecules and organelles in vacuoles and lysosomes. Autophagy is induced when the nutrient supply to plant cells is...
