June 2010 in “The Plant Cell” In this study, disruptions in phospholipase A2 activity in Arabidopsis thaliana significantly impaired the plasma membrane localization of PIN proteins, affecting auxin transport and root development.
38 citations
,
June 2018 in “Plant & cell physiology/Plant and cell physiology” This study found that overexpressing PLC5 in Arabidopsis thaliana reduced root growth but improved drought tolerance, and suggests PIP2 is crucial for root hair growth.
65 citations
,
February 2018 in “The Plant Journal” This study found that PLDζ2 and NPC4 enzymes play distinct roles in lipid remodeling and root hair growth in Arabidopsis under phosphate deficiency, influencing root hair density and length in a tissue- and time-specific manner.
25 citations
,
May 2016 in “Molecular biology of the cell” This study found that the AtSfh1 protein in Arabidopsis is essential for phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate signaling crucial to polarized root hair growth, utilizing both phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine-binding activities.
November 2022 in “Munich Personal RePEc Archive (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich)” In this study, the pi4kβ1β2 double mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana exhibited altered root growth, increased susceptibility to Blumeria graminis, and a potential correlation between PI4K activity and auxin response and immunity due to changes in vesicular trafficking and actin filaments.
