The Casparian strip functions as a bidirectional gate for calcium homeostasis in Arabidopsis
Calcium (Ca) is an essential mineral nutrient transported in plants predominantly through the apoplastic pathway. While the molecular assembly of the Casparian strip (CS), the critical apoplastic barrier in the root endodermis, has been elucidated ...

The Casparian strip, a barrier to the apoplastic movement of solutes from the cortex to the stele, is essential for the exclusion of salts, selective nutrient uptake, and many other processes. To date, extensive studies have focused on the physiological functions of endodermal Casparian strips.

Development of Casparian strip in rice cultivars. [PDF]
The development of Casparian strips (CSs) on the endo- and exodermis and their chemical components in roots of three cultivars of rice (Oryza sativa) with different salt tolerance were compared using histochemistry and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The development and deposition of suberin lamellae of CSs on the endo- and exodermis in

Comparative Analysis of Casparian Strip Membrane Domain Protein Family in Oryza sativa (L.) and Arabidopsis thaliana (L.). [PDF]
The Casparian strip membrane domain proteins (CASPs) are pivotal for the formation of the Casparian strip (CS) in endodermal cells and play a crucial role in a plant’s response to environmental stresses.

Casparian strips prevent apoplastic diffusion of boric acid into root steles for excess B tolerance
Casparian strips are ring-like structures consisting of lignin, sealing the apoplastic space between endodermal cells. They are thought to have important functions in controlling radial transport of nutrients and toxic elements in roots.

Two chemically distinct root lignin barriers control solute and water balance
Defects in the Casparian strip, a fine band of lignin that seals root endodermal cells and plays roles in nutrient homeostasis, activate a signaling pathway leading to over-lignification.

Physiological roles of Casparian strips and suberin in the transport of water and solutes [PDF]
Summary The formation of Casparian strips (CS) and the deposition of suberin at the endodermis of plant roots are thought to limit the apoplastic transport of water and ions. We investigated the specific role of each of these apoplastic barriers in the control of hydro‐mineral transport by roots and the consequences on shoot growth.
