Local and systemic regulation of plant root system architecture and symbiotic nodulation by a receptor-like kinase. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
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

A novel insight into nitrogen and auxin signaling in lateral root formation in tea plant [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze]

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Tea plant (Camellia sinensis) is one of the most popular non-alcoholic beverages worldwide. In tea, lateral roots (LRs) are the main organ responsible for the absorption of moisture and mineral nutrients from the soil.

Root isoprene formation alters lateral root development [PDF]

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2020
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

Response of in situ root phenotypes to potassium stress in cotton [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
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.

CdWRKY2 transcription factor modulates salt oversensitivity in bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] has higher utilization potential on saline soil due to its high yield potential and excellent stress tolerance.

Stable expression of aquaporins and hypoxia-responsive genes in adventitious roots are linked to maintaining hydraulic conductance in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) exposed to root hypoxia.

PLoS ONE, 2019
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 ...

The Role of IAA in Regulating Root Architecture of Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam) in Response to Potassium Deficiency Stress

Plants, 2023
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.

Quantitative Analysis of Soil Sheath Distribution in Maize Root Systems

Plant Production Science, 1999
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.

Ectopic expression of GmNF-YA8 in Arabidopsis delays flowering via modulating the expression of gibberellic acid biosynthesis- and flowering-related genes and promotes lateral root emergence in low phosphorus conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
NUCLEAR FACTOR Y subunit alpha (NF-YA), together with NF-YB and NF-YC, regulates plant growth and development, as well as plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.
