Auxin and cytokinin signaling modules regulate lateral root and callus formation. Auxin activates lateral root and callus initiation through derepression of AUXIN RESPONSIVE FACTORS (ARF) by INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID (AUX/IAA) proteins. LATERAL BOUNDARIES DOMAIN (LBD) factors are then activated to initiate LR or callus formation. Cytokinin represses lateral root initiation and activates callus formation through type B ARABIDOPSIS RESPONSE REGULATORS (ARR). Auxin and cytokinin regulate cell division through ARF-LBD factors, PROPORZ1 (PRZ1), ENHANCED SHOOT REGENERATION 2 (ESR2), OBF BINDING PROTEIN 1 (OBP1), and type B ARRs. Upon activation, downstream cyclin-dependent protein kinases D (CYCD), the transcription factor E2Fa, and the INHIBITORY PROTEIN (KIP)-RELATED PROTEINS (KRP) regulate progression through the cell cycle during lateral root and callus formation.
