= Polar auxin transport
Directional cell-to-cell transport of <auxin>. Transporter abundance, polarity and activity influence local <hormone> distribution.
Asymmetric localization of transport components can generate tissue-scale patterns from local cell-to-cell transfers. The resulting <auxin> distribution can guide growth and patterning, while a <concentration> maximum can reflect transport, synthesis and removal together. <Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4th edition by Bruce Alberts and others>[Chapter 21, Development of Plants]{ref}
