Abstract

Plant growth relies on interconnected hormonal pathways, their corresponding transcriptional networks and mechanical signals. This work reviews recent brassinosteroid (BR) studies and integrates them with current growth models derived from research in roots. The relevance of spatiotemporal BR signaling in the longitudinal and radial root axes and its multifaceted interaction with auxin, the impact of BR on final cell size determination and its interplay with microtubules and the cell wall are discussed. Also highlighted are emerging variations of canonical BR signaling that could function in developmental-specific context.
