TL;DR: Evidence is provided that Arabidopsis SWEET proteins, AtSWEET13 and AtS WEET14, which are members of a family that had previously been linked to sugar transport, are able to mediate cellular GA uptake when expressed in yeast and oocytes, and suggest that At sWEET 13 and AtsWEET14 may be involved in modulating GA response in Arabidoptera.

TL;DR: It is reported that a major glucosinolate transporter, GTR1/NPF2, is multifunctional and may be involved in hormone transport in Arabidopsis thaliana and may positively regulate stamen development by mediating gibberellin supply.

TL;DR: Results indicate that jasmonate signaling is activated during the very early stages of iron deficiency, which is partly regulated by IDEF1 and OsHRZs.

TL;DR: Results indicate that OsOPT7 may be involved in Fe transport in rice, and the upregulation of Fe-deficiency-responsive genes in plants grown under Fe-sufficient conditions is revealed, despite the high Fe and ferritin concentrations in shoot tissue indicating that Fe may not be available for physiological functions.

TL;DR: It is found that a JA-Ile transporter, GTR1, contributed to these translocations in Arabidopsis thaliana and may be contributed to correct positioning of JA and JA- Ile to attenuate an excessive wound response in undamaged leaves.
