Lateral root emergence: a difficult birth [PDF]
Lateral root initiation takes place deep within the parental root, requiring new primordia to break through the overlying tissues before they emerge into the soil. Lateral root emergence has been well described at the cellular level but, until recently, the molecular mechanisms involved were unclear.

RALFL34 regulates formative cell divisions in Arabidopsis pericycle during lateral root initiation [PDF]
We describe the role of RALFL34 during early events in lateral root development, and demonstrate its specific importance in orchestrating formative cell divisions in the pericycle.In plants, many signalling molecules, such as phytohormones, miRNAs ...

GOLVEN peptide signalling through RGI receptors and MPK6 restricts asymmetric cell division during lateral root initiation [PDF]
During lateral root initiation, lateral root founder cells undergo asymmetric cell divisions that generate daughter cells with different sizes and fates, a prerequisite for correct primordium organogenesis.

Root isoprene formation alters lateral root development [PDF]
AbstractIsoprene is a C5 volatile organic compound, which can protect aboveground plant tissue from abiotic stress such as short‐term high temperatures and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we uncover new roles for isoprene in the plant belowground tissues. By analysing Populus x canescens isoprene synthase (PcISPS) promoter reporter

Lateral Roots: Random Diversity in Adversity [PDF]
Lateral roots are essential for soil foraging and uptake of minerals and water. They feature a large morphological diversity that results from divergent primordia or root growth and development patterns. Besides a structured diversity, resulting from the hierarchical and developmental organization of root systems, there exists a random diversity ...

Arabidopsis lectin EULS3 is involved in ABA signaling in roots [PDF]
The Arabidopsis thaliana lectin ArathEULS3 is upregulated in particular stress conditions and upon abscisic acid (ABA) treatment. ABA is a plant hormone important for plant growth and stress responses.

Nitrate and phosphate availability and distribution have different effects on root system architecture of Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant root systems can respond to nutrient availability and distribution by changing the three-dimensional deployment of their roots: their root system architecture (RSA). We have compared RSA in homogeneous and heterogeneous nitrate and phosphate supply

Auxin-dependent cell cycle reactivation through transcriptional regulation of Arabidopsis E2Fa by lateral organ boundary proteins [PDF]
Multicellular organisms depend on cell production, cell fate specification, and correct patterning to shape their adult body. In plants, auxin plays a prominent role in the timely coordination of these different cellular processes. A well-studied example

Nitrogen forms affect root structure and water uptake in the hybrid poplar [PDF]
The study analyses the effects of two different forms of nitrogen fertilisation (nitrate and ammonium) on root structure and water uptake of two hybrid poplar (Populus maximowiczii x P. balsamifera) clones in a field experiment.

Calcium spiking patterns and the role of the calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase CCaMK in lateral root base nodulation of Sesbania rostrata [PDF]
Nodulation factor (NF) signal transduction in the legume-rhizobium symbiosis involves calcium oscillations that are instrumental in eliciting nodulation.
