The root endodermis: A hub of developmental signals and nutrient flow [PDF]
The root endodermis is the cylindrical boundary that separates the inner vascular tissue from the outer cortex and functions as an apoplasmic barrier for selective nutrient uptake. Recent developmental and cell biological studies have started to reveal the mechanisms by which this single cell layer serves as a key regulatory module of root growth ...

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2013
A Casparian strip–bearing endodermis is a feature that has been invariably present in the roots of ferns and angiosperms for approximately 400 million years. As the innermost cortical layer that surrounds the central vasculature of roots, the endodermis acts as a barrier to the free diffusion of solutes from the soil into the stele.

The endodermis, a tightly controlled barrier for nutrients
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2017Plant roots acquire nutrients from the soil and transport them upwards to the aerial parts. To reach the central vasculature of the root, water and nutrients radially cross all external cell layers. The endodermis surrounds the vascular tissues and forms diffusion barriers.

The endodermis as a checkpoint for nutrients
New Phytologist, 2016SummaryPlant roots forage the soil for nutrients and transport them upwards to the aerial parts. Nutrients entering the plant are transported through the concentric layers of epidermis, cortex and endodermis before reaching the central vasculature. The endodermis is the innermost cortical cell layer that surrounds the vasculature.

Planta, 2002
Ultrastructure and development of apoplastic barriers within indeterminate root nodules formed by Vicia faba L. were examined by light and electron microscopy. The nodule outer cortex is separated from the inner cortex by a heavily suberized nodule endodermis, which matures in submeristematic regions and possesses suberin lamellae.

Functions of passage cells in the endodermis and exodermis of roots
Physiologia Plantarum, 1996Passage cells frequently occur in the endodermis and exodermis but are not ubiquitous in either layer. Passage cells occur in the form of short cells in the dimorphic type of exodermis. In both layers, Casparian bands are formed in all cells, but the subsequent development of suberin lamellae and thick, cellulosic walls are delayed or absent in the ...

Results of histochemical tests performed on fresh root tissue of Ranunculus acris provide the following information on the chemical nature of the root endodermis: (i) the Casparian strip is impregnated with lipid and possibly lignin, (ii) the suberin lamellae stain positively for lipid and phenols with free hydroxyl groups, and (iii) the tertiary wall

The mechanical role of the endodermis in Equisetum plant stems
American Journal of Botany, 2004The endodermis of different species of the genus Equisetum has different configurations, two or one continuous layers or a sheath only around the vascular bundles. The question whether the endodermis contributes to the mechanical stability of the aerial shoots is investigated in two ways: In a direct approach, the endodermis of segments of E.

An Oxidation and Adsorption Reaction for Differentiating the Endodermis and the Collenchyma
Stain Technology, 1946A method is presented for a study of the endodermis and collenchyma in vascular plants. The method is useful in histologically isolating these tissues, particularly where the accepted anatomical features and the usual staining reactions are not definitive.

The structure of the stem endodermis in etiolated pea seedlings
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1987Differentiation of the endodermis was examined in third internodes of etiolated Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska seedlings. The endodermis in young internodes contains large, sedimented amyloplasts; in older internodes, a casparian strip differentiates and the endodermis becomes depleted of starch except for the proximal region of the stem, which retains ...
