Branching out in roots: uncovering form, function, and regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Root branching is critical for plants to secure anchorage and ensure the supply of water, minerals, and nutrients. To date, research on root branching has focused on lateral root development in young seedlings.

Genetic regulation of lateral root development

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
Lateral roots (LRs) are an important part of plant root systems. In dicots, for example, after plants adapted from aquatic to terrestrial environments, filamentous pseudorhizae evolved to allow nutrient absorption. A typical plant root system comprises a primary root, LRs, root hairs, and a root cap.

UPRA-PHYSIOLOGICAL LEVELS OF GIBBERELLINS / DELLAS MODIFY ROOT CELL SIZE / NUMBER AND ROOT ARCHITECTURE IN ROOT TIPS OF ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA SEEDLINGS. CONNECTIONS TO THE ROOT HAIR PATTERNING AND ABUNDANCE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Development, 2021
A previous study showed that excessive GAs/DELLAs altered the arrangement, shape and frequency of hairs in root tips of A. thaliana seedlings by acting from the root sub-epidermal tissues.

MtLAX2, a functional homologue of the Arabidopsis auxin influx transporter AUX1, is required for nodule organogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Most legume plants can form nodules, specialized lateral organs that form on roots, and house nitrogen-fixing bacteria collectively called rhizobia. The uptake of the phytohormone auxin into cells is known to be crucial for development of lateral roots ...

Root mediated uptake of Salmonella is different from phyto-pathogen and associated with the colonization of edible organs

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Pre-harvest contamination of fruits and vegetables by Salmonella in fields is one of the causes of food-borne outbreaks. Natural openings like stomata, hydathodes and fruit cracks are known to serve as entry points.

Modulation of Arabidopsis and monocot root architecture by CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION 26 peptide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plant roots are important for a wide range of processes, including nutrient and water uptake, anchoring and mechanical support, storage functions, and as the major interface with the soil environment.

Lateral Auxin Transport in Stems and Roots [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1967
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).

Lateral Root Primordium Morphogenesis in Angiosperms [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Morphogenetic processes are the basis of new organ formation. Lateral roots (LRs) are the building blocks of the root system. After LR initiation and before LR emergence, a new lateral root primordium (LRP) forms. During this period, the organization and functionality of the prospective LR is defined.

Asymmetric auxin distribution establishes a contrasting pattern of aerenchyma formation in the nodal roots of Zea nicaraguensis during gravistimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Auxin distribution is essential for determining root developmental patterns. The formation of lateral roots and constitutive aerenchyma, which is a gas space developed through cell death, is regulated by auxin in rice (Oryza sativa).

Callose deposition and symplastic connectivity are regulated prior to lateral root emergence. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Root growth is critical for the effective exploitation of the rhizosphere and productive plant growth. Our recent work(1) showed that root architecture was dependent upon the degree of symplastic connectivity between neighboring cells during the ...
