Wound-induced signals regulate root organogenesis in Arabidopsis explants.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium ions (Ca²⁺) are representative signals of plant wound responses. Wounding triggers cell fate transition in detached plant tissues and induces de novo root organogenesis. While the hormonal regulation of root organogenesis has been widely studied, the role of early wound signals including ROS and Ca²⁺ remains largely unknown.

Results

We identified that ROS and Ca²⁺ are required for de novo root organogenesis, but have different functions in Arabidopsis explants. The inhibition of the ROS and Ca²⁺ signals delayed root development in detached leaves. Examination of the auxin signaling pathways indicated that ROS and Ca²⁺ did not affect auxin biosynthesis and transport in
