Comparative effects of auxin and abscisic acid on growth, hydrogen ion efflux and gravitropism in primary roots of maize [PDF]
In order to test the idea that auxin action on root growth may be mediated by H(+) movement, the correlation of auxin action on growth and H(+) movement in roots was examined along with changes in H(+) efflux patterns associated with the asymmetric ...

Plants and Graviperception [PDF]
فناوری در مهندسی هوافضا, 2019 Plants have different mechanisms for understanding and responding to environmental stimuli cues. Gravity is one of the most important directional environmental cues to control growth direction, that plants can permanently adapt to it. Gravitropism can be

Plant Root Architectural Traits Mediate a Trade‐Off Between Suppression and Tolerance of Competitors
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.We use a modelling approach to simulate the evolution of root architecture under increasing levels of competition. An increase in the number of neighbours results in the evolution of roots that grow deeper and are less dense, causing plants to have lower maximum fitness but increased competition tolerance.

The role of calcium and calmodulin in the response of roots to gravity [PDF]
There is general agreement that, in roots, the primary detection of the gravitropic signal occurs in the columella cells of the cap and that this results in the generation of a signal that moves into the elongation zone causing the asymmetric growth that

PID/WAG-mediated phosphorylation of the Arabidopsis PIN3 auxin transporter mediates polarity switches during gravitropism [PDF]
, 2018 Intercellular distribution of the plant hormone auxin largely depends on the polar subcellular distribution of the plasma membrane PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin transporters. PIN polarity switches in response to different developmental and environmental signals

Biologia Plantarum, 2013 In conifers, relationship between ethylene and the response to inclination are not well understood. The aim of this work was to study the consequence for the application of 2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid (ethephon), compound able to release ethylene, in ...

PLoS ONE, 2019 Perception of inclination in the gravity field and perception of light direction are two important environmental signals implicated in the control of plant shape and habit. However, their quantitative study in light-grown plants remains a challenge.

Live tracking of moving samples in confocal microscopy for vertically grown roots
eLife, 2017 Roots navigate through soil integrating environmental signals to orient their growth. The Arabidopsis root is a widely used model for developmental, physiological and cell biological studies.

The Fiber Walk: A Model of Tip-Driven Growth with Lateral Expansion [PDF]
, 2013 Tip-driven growth processes underlie the development of many plants. To date, tip-driven growth processes have been modelled as an elongating path or series of segments without taking into account lateral expansion during elongation.

Regulation of tiller angle by gravity-sensing genes in rice
Crop JournalEndodermal cells and starch-accumulating amyloplasts are well-known gravity sensors initiating shoot gravitropism in Arabidopsis thaliana. The transcription factors SHR and SGR1 regulate endodermal cell formation, while PGM has been demonstrated to ...
