Regulated transport has long been known to play a key part in action of the plant hormone auxin. Now, at last, a family of auxin efflux carriers has been identified, and the characterisation of one family member has provided strong evidence in support of models that have been proposed to explain gravitropic curvature in roots.
长期以来,人们都知道调控运输在植物激素生长素的作用中起着关键作用。现在,终于鉴定出了一个生长素外流载体家族,并且对其中一个家族成员的特性分析为解释根向重力性弯曲的模型提供了有力证据。
