AbstractReactive oxygen species (ROS) function as key signals in plants to enable adaptation to environmental stresses. Plant roots respond to transient water stress by temporarily ceasing branching using the acclimative response xerobranching. In this study, we report that a rapid ROS burst regulates Xerobranching by inducing multimerization of auxin repressor protein IAA3/SHY2.
