Auxin-dependent control of a plasmodesmal regulator creates a negative feedback loop modulating lateral root emergence

Auxin promotes lateral root emergence from pericycle cells in the root vasculature. Here the authors show that induction of the plasmodesmal regulator PDLP5 during lateral root emergence restricts the spatial scope of auxin signaling to the cells overlying the primordia.
