Las personas detrás de los artículos - Abdul Kareem y Marcus Heisler

Organ patterning in plant shoots is influenced by the accumulation of the hormone auxin, driven by the polarisation of an auxin transporter protein. In a recent study, Kareem et al. investigated the role of transcription factor TMO5 in regulating this polarity and subsequent organogenesis. To find out more, we spoke to first author Abdul Kareem and corresponding author Marcus Heisler, Associate Professor at the University of Sydney, Australia.
