Auxin plays a role in nearly every aspect of a plant's life. Signals from the developmental program, physiological status, and encounters with other organisms all converge on the auxin pathway. The molecular mechanisms facilitating these interactions are diverse; yet, common themes emerge. Auxin can be regulated by modulating rates of biosynthesis, conjugation, and transport, as well as sensitivity of a cell to the auxin signal. In this article, we describe some well-studied examples of auxin's interactions with other pathways.
生长素在植物生命的几乎各个方面都起着作用。来自发育程序、生理状态和与其他生物体相互作用的信号都集中在生长素途径上。促进这些相互作用的分子机制多种多样；然而，出现了一些共同的主题。生长素可以通过调节生物合成、结合和运输的速度以及细胞对生长素信号的敏感性来进行调节。在本文中，我们描述了生长素与其他途径相互作用的一些研究得很好的例子。
