Rice OsCASP1 orchestrates Casparian strip formation and suberin deposition in small lateral roots to maintain nutrient homeostasis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Arabidopsis Casparian strip membrane domain proteins (CASPs) form a transmembrane scaffold to recruit lignin biosynthetic enzymes for Casparian strip (CS) formation.

Silicification of Root Tissues

Plants, 2020
Silicon (Si) is not considered an essential element, however, its tissue concentration can exceed that of many essential elements in several evolutionary distant plant species. Roots take up Si using Si transporters and then translocate it to aboveground

Beyond the Barrier: Communication in the Root through the Endodermis [PDF]

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY, 2014
The root endodermis is characterized by the Casparian strip and by the suberin lamellae, two hydrophobic barriers that restrict the free diffusion of molecules between the inner cell layers of the root and the outer environment. The presence of these barriers and the position of the endodermis between the inner and outer parts of the root require that ...

Using Evolution as a Guide to Engineer Kranz-Type C4 photosynthesis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Kranz-type C4 photosynthesis has independently and rapidly evolved over sixty times to dramatically increase radiation use efficiency in both monocots and eudicots. Indeed, it is one of the most exceptional examples of convergent evolution in the history

Cadmium Tolerance During Seed Germination and Seedling Growth of Schinus molle (Anacardiaceae)

Floresta e Ambiente, 2020
Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic elements to plants, so Cd-tolerant trees should be used in reforestation or remediation systems. In this study the effects of Cd on seed germination and early seedling growth were evaluated in Schinus molle plants ...

Suberin goes genomics: Use of a short living plant to investigate a long lasting polymer

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Suberin is a highly persistent cell wall polymer, predominantly composed of long-chain hydroxylated fatty acids. Apoplastic suberin depositions occur in internal and peripheral dermal tissues where they generate lipophilic barriers preventing ...
