Cytokinin is an essential element of the systemic signaling network leading to the enhancement of lateral root proliferation in areas where nitrate is available. Here,we explore more precisely：（i） which particular traits of lateral root growth（density and length of emerged lateral roots） are the targets of systemic signaling in a context of heterogeneous nitrate supply; and（ii） if the systemic signaling depends only on cytokinin or on a combination of several signalings.展开更多

In particular, inferring GRN structure from comprehensive gene expression and transcription factor （TF）-promoter interaction data sets has become an increasingly sought-after aim in both fundamental and agronomical research in plant biology （Bonneau et al., 2007; Ruffel et al., 2010）.展开更多
