Interplay between auxin efflux and influx carriers is required for correct and robust patterning. (A) Regulation of LAX3 expression by auxin alone leads to the expression of LAX3 in 3–4 cortical cell files, which does not correspond to experimental observations. (B) It is only when the auxin efflux carrier PIN3 is included in the model that the correct LAX3 expression pattern can be obtained, resulting in robust expression restricted to two cortical cell files, thereby delimiting cell separation in advance of new lateral root primordia. Abbreviations: IAA, Auxin; TIR1, Auxin receptor component; IAA14, Aux/IAA protein 14; ARF7, Auxin response factor 7; PIN3, Auxin efflux transporter; LAX3, Auxin influx transporter.
