The Root Cap Cuticle: A Cell Wall Structure for Seedling Establishment and Lateral Root Formation.
Cell, 2019 The root cap surrounding the tip of plant roots is thought to protect the delicate stem cells in the root meristem. We discovered that the first layer of root cap cells is covered by an electron-opaque cell wall modification resembling a plant cuticle ...

Nature Communications, 2020 Lateral roots originate from initial cells deep within the main root and must emerge through several overlying layers. Lateral root emergence requires the outgrowth of the new primordium (LRP) to coincide with the timely separation of overlying root ...

Cell Type-Specific Transcriptomics of Lateral Root Formation and Plasticity
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Lateral roots are a major determinant of root architecture and are instrumental for the efficient uptake of water and nutrients. Lateral roots consist of multiple cell types each expressing a unique transcriptome at a given developmental stage. Therefore,

A shared gene drives lateral root development and root nodule symbiosis pathways in Lotus
Science, 2019 Common gene yields different structures Nodules form on legume roots to house symbiotic, nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Lateral roots, characteristic of a much broader range of plants, extend to take up nutrients and water from the soil. Soyano et al.

bioRxiv, 2020 Flavonoids are plant-specific antioxidant compounds that modulate plant development, which include flavonols and anthocyanins subclasses. In Arabidopsis thaliana, mutants in genes encoding each step in the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway have been ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Aerenchyma formation has a crucial role in conferring abiotic stress tolerance to plants, including agronomically important crops. In rice, root aerenchyma constitutively forms under aerobic conditions and is further induced under oxygen ...

Noncanonical auxin signaling regulates cell division pattern during lateral root development
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Development in multicellular organisms consists of a series of cell divisions followed by cell expansions, which are tightly controlled both spatially and temporally.

WOX-ARF modules initiate different types of roots
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Seed plants have evolved a complex root system consisting of at least three root types, i.e., adventitious roots, lateral roots, and the primary root. Auxin is the key hormone that controls the initiation of different root types.

Lateral root emergence: a difficult birth [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2009 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.
