A dirigent family protein confers variation of Casparian strip thickness and salt tolerance in maize
Nature Communications, 2022 Most crops are farmed under high transpiring environments, but our understanding of transpiration-dependent salt tolerance (TDST) remains limited. Here, the authors report a dirigent family protein is responsible for TDST by affecting lignin deposition ...

Role of LOTR1 in nutrient transport through organization of spatial distribution of root endodermal barriers [PDF]
, 2017 The formation of Casparian strips and suberin lamellae at the endodermis limits the free diffusion of nutrients and harmful substances via the apoplastic space between the soil solution and the stele in roots [1–3].

The MYB36 transcription factor orchestrates Casparian strip formation [PDF]
, 2015 The endodermis in roots acts as a selectivity filter for nutrient and water transport essential for growth and development. This selectivity is enabled by the formation of lignin-based Casparian strips.

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 ...

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Lead Uptake, Toxicity, and Detoxification in Plants [PDF]
, 2011 Lead has gained considerable attention as a persistent toxic pollutant of concern, partly because it has been prominent in the debate concerning the growing anthropogenic pressure on the environment.

The GLV6/RGF8/CLEL2 peptide regulates early pericycle divisions during lateral root initiation [PDF]
, 2015 Small peptides of the Arabidopsis GLV/RGF/CLEL family are involved in different developmental programmes, including meristem maintenance and gravitropic responses.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Anemia due to iron deficiency is a worldwide issue, affecting mainly children and women. Seed iron is a major source of this micronutrient for feeding, however, in most crops these levels are too low to meet daily needs.

SlGRF1 mediates gibberellin signaling to control cut‐budding in tomato
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.Upon wounding, cytokinin increases to initiate callus formation. Gibberellin enhances this, but later blocks bud formation by suppressing SlGRF1. Wounding‐induced protein SlGRF1 triggers buds via NAM1, EPF4, and ER2. Hormonal shifts control cut‐budding phases.

Towards an integrated molecular understanding of plant hormones
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review offers a comprehensive overview of the nine plant hormones, delving into their biosynthesis, transport, signaling and crosstalk mechanisms. Because the complexity of plant hormonal control goes beyond these core elements, additional specific features are discussed. Lastly, this review highlights how fundamental insights drive hormonal‐based
