Lateral Root and Nodule Transcriptomes of Soybean [PDF]
Symbiotic legume nodules and lateral roots arise away from the root meristem via dedifferentiation events. While these organs share some morphological and developmental similarities, whether legume nodules are modified lateral roots is an open question ...

Plasticity of Lateral Root Branching in Maize [PDF]
Extensively branched root systems can efficiently capture soil resources by increasing their absorbing surface in soil. Lateral roots are the roots formed from pericycle cells of other roots that can be of any type.

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

Plants can adapt to the spatial heterogeneity of soil nutrients by changing the morphology and architecture of the root system. Here, we explored the role of auxin in the response of sweetpotato roots to potassium (K+) deficiency stress.

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.

Formation of adventitious roots in plants is a common response to hypoxia caused by flooding. In tobacco, after one week of root hypoxia treatment, plants produced twice as many adventitious roots as the aerated plants, but their maximum length was ...

Quantitative Analysis of Soil Sheath Distribution in Maize Root Systems
The soil sheath (SS) distribution and its change with the passage of time in maize root systems were investigated. Maize seeds were planted in deep pots, and the roots were sampled at 2, 3, 4 and 6 weeks after sowing.

Diageotropica and Lateral Rooting, the Rest of the Story [PDF]
Plant roots have long been of practical and scientific interest for their role in plant stature, and water and nutrient uptake. One of the first classes of root to be singled out and explored were the lateral roots. Much of the study of lateral roots has been with seedling plants due to their early development and relatively easy access. McCully (1975)

Lateral Auxin Transport in Stems and Roots [PDF]
The lateral movement of auxin has been sttudied with bioassays and also by application of '4C-IAA. Both techniques have demonstrated that the upper half of a horizontally positioned stem or root contains at least 30( to 45 % of the total auxin present in the tissue (2).
