Expression Profile of <i>PIN</i>-Formed Auxin Efflux Carrier Genes during IBA-Induced In Vitro Adventitious Rooting in <i>Olea europaea</i> L. by Isabel Velada, Hélia Cardoso, Sara Porfirio, Augusto Peixe

“…However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the process of adventitious rooting are still not completely understood and many plants with economic value, including several olive cultivars, exhibit a recalcitrant behavior towards cutting propagation, which limits its availability in plant nurseries. PIN-formed proteins are auxin efflux transporters that have been widely characterized in several plant species due to their involvement in many developmental processes including root formation. …”
