Specification and evolution of lateral roots
Plants have evolved a remarkable capacity to develop new organs post-embryonically throughout their lifespan. A prime example of this is root branching. Root branching occurs in two ways: dichotomous and lateral branching. The dichotomous branching is the result of the division of the root apical meristem into two daughter meristems, likely through ...

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 ...

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

Influence of treatment on rooting of arctic Salix species cuttings for revegetation
Increased northern exploration and resource extraction highlight a need for effective revegetation techniques to restore disturbed environments. This study assessed effects of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), water extracts of Salix and smoke, soaking time ...

Response of in situ root phenotypes to potassium stress in cotton [PDF]
Potassium plays a significant role in the basic functions of plant growth and development. Potassium uptake is closely associated with morphological characteristics of the roots.

Local and systemic regulation of plant root system architecture and symbiotic nodulation by a receptor-like kinase. [PDF]
In plants, root system architecture is determined by the activity of root apical meristems, which control the root growth rate, and by the formation of lateral roots. In legumes, an additional root lateral organ can develop: the symbiotic nitrogen-fixing
