Rhizosphere Mortierella strain of alfalfa exerted weed growth inhibition by inducing expression of plant hormone-related genes [PDF]
IntroductionWeeds are significant factors that detrimentally affect crop health and hinder optimal herbage yield. Rhizosphere microorganisms play crucial roles in plant growth, development, and nutrient uptake.

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]
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.

SUPRA-PHYSIOLOGICAL LEVELS OF GIBBERELLINS / DELLAS ALTER THE PATTERNING, MORPHOLOGY AND ABUNDANCE OF ROOT HAIRS IN ROOT TIPS OF ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA SEEDLINGS [PDF]
In spite of the role of gibberellins/DELLAs in leaf hair production, no investigations have assessed their function in the production of root hairs. To this aim, the effects of supra-physiological levels of GAs/DELLAs on the gene expression patterning of

Potato Cyst Nematodes (PCNs) are an economically important pest for potato growers. A crucial event in the life cycle of the nematode is hatching, after which the juvenile will move toward the host root and infect it.

On the role of dauer in the adaptation of nematodes to a parasitic lifestyle
Nematodes are presumably the most abundant Metazoa on Earth, and can even be found in some of the most hostile environments of our planet. Various types of hypobiosis evolved to adapt their life cycles to such harsh environmental conditions.

The role of strigolactones in P deficiency induced transcriptional changes in tomato roots
Background Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development. Upon P shortage, plant responds with massive reprogramming of transcription, the Phosphate Starvation Response (PSR). In parallel, the production of strigolactones (

An improved strategy to analyse strigolactones in complex sample matrices using UHPLC–MS/MS
Background Strigolactones represent the most recently described group of plant hormones involved in many aspects of plant growth regulation. Simultaneously, root exuded strigolactones mediate rhizosphere signaling towards beneficial arbuscular ...
