As a result, PIF-mediated control of hypocotyl elongation is inhibited. By contrast, in the presence of GA, DELLA proteins are degraded and cell elongation can occur. The authors propose that PIFs ...

Specifically, the pathway is involved in skotomorphogenesis and photomorphogenesis through light-mediated regulatory mechanisms and regulates key processes such as hypocotyl elongation.

The Challenges of Eukaryotic Replication Bacterial and eukaryotic cells share many of the same basic features of replication; for instance, initiation requires a primer, elongation is always in ...

We are investigating the order in which traits related to body elongation evolved in eels. This project asks whether the traits that give true eels (Anguilliformes) their elongated body shape evolved ...

Plant cells are also able to become longer as they grow. This process is called cell elongation and occurs throughout the plant, not just in the meristems. Cell elongation does not occur in animals.
