Other claims from this paper (5)
- Mechanism Serration development is attributed to spatial regulatory peaks of auxin and CUC2 activity.
- Mechanism The proposed mechanism has two feedback loops operating at the growing leaf margin.
- Mechanism PIN1 polar membrane localization links auxin transport to its distribution.
- Mechanism CUC2 promotes PIN1-dependent auxin activity maxima.
- Mechanism The CUC2-dependent loop regulates an auxin efflux module to generate stable serration patterns.
