Parsimonious Model of Vascular Patterning Links Transverse Hormone Fluxes to Lateral Root Initiation: Auxin Leads the Way, while Cytokinin Levels Out

Fig 9

Apolar PIN1 localisation has only a minor effect on auxin accumulation in the xylem axis.

(A) Polar (left) and apolar (right) subcellular localisation patterns of PIN1. (B, C) ‘DR5-like’ output showing the auxin pattern along xylem axis in simulations of roots with (B) polar and (C) apolar PIN1 localisation. (D) Plot showing the auxin concentration in cells along the xylem axis of simulations with polar (black) and apolar (red) PIN1.
