text: Plant growth and development is well known to be both, flexible and dynamic.
The high capacity for post-embryonic organ formation and tissue regeneration requires
tightly regulated intercellular communication and coordinated tissue polarization.
One of the most important drivers for patterning and polarity in plant development
is the phytohormone auxin. Auxin has the unique characteristic to establish polarized
channels for its own active directional cell to cell transport. This fascinating
phenomenon is called auxin canalization. Those auxin transport channels are characterized
by the expression and polar, subcellular localization of PIN auxin efflux carriers.
PIN proteins have the ability to dynamically change their localization and auxin
itself can affect this by interfering with trafficking. Most of the underlying
molecular mechanisms of canalization still remain enigmatic. What is known so
far is that canonical auxin signaling is indispensable but also other non-canonical
signaling components are thought to play a role. In order to shed light into the
mysteries auf auxin canalization this study revisits the branches of auxin signaling
in detail. Further a new auxin analogue, PISA, is developed which triggers auxin-like
responses but does not directly activate canonical transcriptional auxin signaling.
We revisit the direct auxin effect on PIN trafficking where we found that, contradictory
to previous observations, auxin is very specifically promoting endocytosis of
PIN2 but has no overall effect on endocytosis. Further, we evaluate which cellular
processes related to PIN subcellular dynamics are involved in the establishment
of auxin conducting channels and the formation of vascular tissue. We are re-evaluating
the function of AUXIN BINDING PROTEIN 1 (ABP1) and provide a comprehensive picture
about its developmental phneotypes and involvement in auxin signaling and canalization.
Lastly, we are focusing on the crosstalk between the hormone strigolactone (SL)
and auxin and found that SL is interfering with essentially all processes involved
in auxin canalization in a non-transcriptional manner. Lastly we identify a new
way of SL perception and signaling which is emanating from mitochondria, is independent
of canonical SL signaling and is modulating primary root growth.

text: "As the overall global mean surface temperature is increasing due to climate
change, plant\r\nadaptation to those stressful conditions is of utmost importance
for their survival. Plants are\r\nsessile organisms, thus to compensate for their
lack of mobility, they evolved a variety of\r\nmechanisms enabling them to flexibly
adjust their physiological, growth and developmental\r\nprocesses to fluctuating
temperatures and to survive in harsh environments. While these unique\r\nadaptation
abilities provide an important evolutionary advantage, overall modulation of plant\r\ngrowth
and developmental program due to non-optimal temperature negatively affects biomass\r\nproduction,
crop productivity or sensitivity to pathogens. Thus, understanding molecular\r\nprocesses
underlying plant adaptation to increased temperature can provide important\r\nresources
for breeding strategies to ensure sufficient agricultural food production.\r\nAn
increase in ambient temperature by a few degrees leads to profound changes in
organ growth\r\nincluding enhanced hypocotyl elongation, expansion of petioles,
hyponastic growth of leaves and\r\ncotyledons, collectively named thermomorphogenesis
(Casal & Balasubramanian, 2019). Auxin,\r\none of the best-studied growth hormones,
plays an essential role in this process by direct\r\nactivation of transcriptional
and non-transcriptional processes resulting in elongation growth\r\n(Majda & Robert,
2018).To modulate hypocotyl growth in response to high ambient temperature\r\n(hAT),
auxin needs to be redistributed accordingly. PINs, auxin efflux transporters,
are key\r\ncomponents of the polar auxin transport (PAT) machinery, which controls
the amount and\r\ndirection of auxin translocated in the plant tissues and organs(Adamowski
& Friml, 2015). Hence,\r\nPIN-mediated transport is tightly linked with thermo-morphogenesis,
and interference with PAT\r\nthrough either chemical or genetic means dramatically
affecting the adaptive responses to hAT.\r\nIntriguingly, despite the key role
of PIN mediated transport in growth response to hAT, whether\r\nand how PINs at
the level of expression adapt to fluctuation in temperature is scarcely\r\nunderstood.\r\nWith
genetic, molecular and advanced bio-imaging approaches, we demonstrate the role
of PIN\r\nauxin transporters in the regulation of hypocotyl growth in response
to hAT. We show that via\r\nadjustment of PIN3, PIN4 and PIN7 expression in cotyledons
and hypocotyls, auxin distribution is modulated thereby determining elongation
pattern of epidermal cells at hAT. Furthermore, we\r\nidentified three Zinc-Finger
(ZF) transcription factors as novel molecular components of the\r\nthermo-regulatory
network, which through negative regulation of PIN transcription adjust the\r\ntransport
of auxin at hAT. Our results suggest that the ZF-PIN module might be a part of
the\r\nnegative feedback loop attenuating the activity of the thermo-sensing pathway
to restrain\r\nexaggerated growth and developmental responses to hAT."

text: "Plants maintain the capacity to develop new organs e.g. lateral roots post-embryonically
throughout their whole life and thereby flexibly adapt to ever-changing environmental
conditions. Plant hormones auxin and cytokinin are the main regulators of the
lateral root organogenesis. Additionally to their solo activities, the interaction
between auxin and\r\ncytokinin plays crucial role in fine-tuning of lateral root
development and growth. In particular, cytokinin modulates auxin distribution
within the developing lateral root by affecting the endomembrane trafficking of
auxin transporter PIN1 and promoting its vacuolar degradation (Marhavý et al.,
2011, 2014). This effect is independent of transcription and\r\ntranslation. Therefore,
it suggests novel, non-canonical cytokinin activity occuring possibly on the posttranslational
level. Impact of cytokinin and other plant hormones on auxin transporters (including
PIN1) on the posttranslational level is described in detail in the introduction
part of this thesis in a form of a review (Semeradova et al., 2020). To gain insights
into the molecular machinery underlying cytokinin effect on the endomembrane trafficking
in the plant cell, in particular on the PIN1 degradation, we conducted two large
proteomic screens: 1) Identification of cytokinin binding proteins using\r\nchemical
proteomics. 2) Monitoring of proteomic and phosphoproteomic changes upon cytokinin
treatment. In the first screen, we identified DYNAMIN RELATED PROTEIN 2A (DRP2A).
We found that DRP2A plays a role in cytokinin regulated processes during the plant
growth and that cytokinin treatment promotes destabilization of DRP2A protein.
However, the role of DRP2A in the PIN1 degradation remains to be elucidated. In
the second screen, we found VACUOLAR PROTEIN SORTING 9A (VPS9A). VPS9a plays crucial
role in plant’s response to cytokin and in cytokinin mediated PIN1 degradation.
Altogether, we identified proteins, which bind to cytokinin and proteins that
in response to\r\ncytokinin exhibit significantly changed abundance or phosphorylation
pattern. By combining information from these two screens, we can pave our way
towards understanding of noncanonical cytokinin effects."

text: 'Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient determining plant growth, development
and affecting agricultural productivity. Root, as a hub that perceives and integrates
local and systemic signals on the plant’s external and endogenous nitrogen resources,
communicates with other plant organs to consolidate their physiology and development
in accordance with actual nitrogen balance. Over the last years, numerous studies
demonstrated that these comprehensive developmental adaptations rely on the interaction
between pathways controlling nitrogen homeostasis and hormonal networks acting
globally in the plant body. However, molecular insights into how the information
about the nitrogen status is translated through hormonal pathways into specific
developmental output are lacking. In my work, I addressed so far poorly understood
mechanisms underlying root-to-shoot communication that lead to a rapid re-adjustment
of shoot growth and development after nitrate provision. Applying a combination
of molecular, cell, and developmental biology approaches, genetics and grafting
experiments as well as hormonal analytics, I identified and characterized an unknown
molecular framework orchestrating shoot development with a root nitrate sensory
system. '

text: The whole life cycle of plants as well as their responses to environmental
stimuli is governed by a complex network of hormonal regulations. A number of
studies have demonstrated an essential role of both auxin and cytokinin in the
regulation of many aspects of plant growth and development including embryogenesis,
postembryonic organogenic processes such as root, and shoot branching, root and
shoot apical meristem activity and phyllotaxis. Over the last decades essential
knowledge on the key molecular factors and pathways that spatio-temporally define
auxin and cytokinin activities in the plant body has accumulated. However, how
both hormonal pathways are interconnected by a complex network of interactions
and feedback circuits that determines the final outcome of the individual hormone
actions is still largely unknown. Root system architecture establishment and in
particular formation of lateral organs is prime example of developmental process
at whose regulation both auxin and cytokinin pathways converge. To dissect convergence
points and pathways that tightly balance auxin - cytokinin antagonistic activities
that determine the root branching pattern transcriptome profiling was applied.
Genome wide expression analyses of the xylem pole pericycle, a tissue giving rise
to lateral roots, led to identification of genes that are highly responsive to
combinatorial auxin and cytokinin treatments and play an essential function in
the auxin-cytokinin regulated root branching. SYNERGISTIC AUXIN CYTOKININ 1 (SYAC1)
gene, which encodes for a protein of unknown function, was detected among the
top candidate genes of which expression was synergistically up-regulated by simultaneous
hormonal treatment. Plants with modulated SYAC1 activity exhibit severe defects
in the root system establishment and attenuate developmental responses to both
auxin and cytokinin. To explore the biological function of the SYAC1, we employed
different strategies including expression pattern analysis, subcellular localization
and phenotypic analyses of the syac1 loss-of-function and gain-of-function transgenic
lines along with the identification of the SYAC1 interaction partners. Detailed
functional characterization revealed that SYAC1 acts as a developmentally specific
regulator of the secretory pathway to control deposition of cell wall components
and thereby rapidly fine tune elongation growth.
