WOX3 in the scene: Intimacy with hormones

Abstract

How do WOX genes function to regulate key developmental programs in plants? Were aware of their love affair with hormones, but lack good evidence of direct cause-and-effect relationships linking transcriptional activity and hormonal changes. In this issue of Journal of Experimental Botany (pages 1677-1687), Cho et al. Provide that evidence for rice OsWOX3A and gibberellic acid.
