Dear Editor, Auxin-signaling F-box protein 4 （AFB4） encoded by At4g24390 shares a significant sequence similarity to auxin receptor TIR1. In this study, we used a combination of physiological, molecular, and genetic approaches to characterize a T-DNA insertion line （GABI-KAT accession no.： 068E01; h...
