1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase determines the fate of ethylene biosynthesis in a tissue-specific way to fine-tune development and stress resilience

Maarten Houben, John Vaughan‐Hirsch, Jolien Pattyn…·Bram Van de Poel

This study characterizes the ACO gene family in Arabidopsis, showing tissue-specific ethylene production and its role in stress responses, but not essential for normal development.

Ethylene Insensitive 3-Like 2 (EIL2) is a Brassicaceae-specific transcriptional regulator involved in fine-tuning ethylene-dependent hypocotyl elongation, lateral root formation and flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana

Maarten Houben, John Vaughan‐Hirsch, Wangshu Mou, Bram Van de Poel

This study identifies EIL2 as a Brassicaceae-specific transcription factor that fine-tunes ethylene-dependent processes in Arabidopsis, including hypocotyl elongation, lateral root formation, and flowering time.
