Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Apical hook development is an ideal model for studying differential growth in plants and is controlled by complex phytohormonal crosstalk, with auxin being the major player. Here, we identified a bioactive small molecule that decelerates apical hook opening in Arabidopsis thaliana . Our genetic studies suggest that this molecule enhances or maintains the auxin maximum found in the inner hook side and requires certain auxin signaling components to modulate apical hook opening. Using biochemical approaches, we then revealed the WD40 repeat scaffold protein RECEPTOR FOR ACTIVATED C KINASE 1A (RACK1A) as a direct target of this compound. We present data in support of RACK1A playing a positive role in apical hook opening by activating specific auxin signaling mechanisms and negatively regulating the differential auxin response gradient across the hook, thereby adjusting differential cell growth, an essential process for organ structure and function in plants.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
