Early-season growth responses of corn hybrids and inbred lines to a commercial seed treatment [PDF]
Annual rainfall in the Midwest has increased up to 10% since the early 20th century, while approximately 20-25% of the global corn crops have experienced yearly drought.

Lotus tenuis tolerates combined salinity and waterlogging: maintaining O2 transport to roots and expression of an NHX1-like gene contribute to regulation of Na+ transport [PDF]
Salinity and waterlogging interact to reduce growth for most crop and pasture species. The combination of these stresses often cause a large increase in the rate of Na+ and Cl− transport to shoots; however, the mechanisms responsible for this are largely

Empowering roots—Some current aspects of root bioenergetics
Roots of higher plants provide the shoot with nutrients and water. In exchange, they receive photosynthates, which serve both as energy source and building blocks for maintenance and growth.

Spatial development of transport structures in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) fruit [PDF]
The void network and vascular system are important pathways for the transport of gases, water and solutes in apple fruit (Malus x domestica Borkh). Here we used X-ray micro-tomography at various spatial resolutions to investigate the growth of these ...

Hypocotyl adventitious root organogenesis differs from lateral root development [PDF]
Wound-induced adventitious root (AR) formation is a requirement for plant survival upon root damage inflicted by pathogen attack, but also during the regeneration of plant stem cuttings for clonal propagation of elite plant varieties.

Aerenchyma formation in roots of maize during sulphate starvation
Young maize ( Zea mays L., Poaceae) plants were grown in a complete, well-oxygenated nutrient solution and then deprived of their external source of sulphate. This treatment induced the formation of aerenchyma in roots. In addition to the effect of sulphate starvation on root anatomy, the presence and location of superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide,

Phellogen (cork cambium) usually produces cork tissue, but when flooded it produces secondary aerenchyma, comprising living cells with non-suberized walls in the stems, roots, and root nodules of some Fabaceae.
