Auxin biology as a field has been at the forefront of advances in delineating the structures, dynamics, and control of plant growth networks. Advances have been enabled by combining the complementary fields of top-down, holistic systems biology and bottom-up, build-to-understand synthetic biology. Continued collaboration between these approaches will facilitate our understanding of and ability to engineer auxin's control of plant growth, development, and physiology. There is a need for the application of similar complementary approaches to improving equity and justice through analysis and redesign of the human systems in which this research is undertaken.

生长素的系统和合成生物学

作为一个领域，生长素生物学在描述植物生长网络的结构、动力学和控制方面一直处于进步的前沿。通过结合自上而下、整体系统生物学和自下而上、构建以理解的合成生物学的互补领域，已经取得了进展。这些方法之间的持续合作将有助于我们理解和设计生长素对植物生长、发育和生理的控制的能力。有必要通过分析和重新设计进行本研究的人类系统来应用类似的补充方法来改善公平和正义。
