Roots in plant ecology

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1986
In 1727 the pioneer vegetation scientist Stephen Hales realized that I much that was of importance to his subject material took place below on ground. A good deal of descriptive work on plant roots and root systems was done in the subsequent two centuries; in crop plants especially, the gross morphology of root systems was well known by the early 20th ...

Rooting plant development

Development, 2013
In 1993, we published a paper in Development detailing the anatomical structure of the Arabidopsis root. The paper described how root growth was maintained by the precisely tuned activity of a small set of ‘initials’, which acted as the source of dividing and differentiating cells, and how these stem cell-like cells surrounded a few infrequently ...

Analysis of Plant Root Gravitropism

2022
Gravity is a powerful element in shaping plant development, with gravitropism, the oriented growth response of plant organs to the direction of gravity, leading to each plant's characteristic form both above and below ground. Despite being conceptually simple to follow, monitoring a plant's directional growth responses can become complex as variation ...

Negative gravitropism in plant roots

Nature Plants, 2016
Plants are capable of orienting their root growth towards gravity in a process termed gravitropism, which is necessary for roots to grow into soil, for water and nutrient acquisition and to anchor plants. Here we show that root gravitropism depends on the novel protein, NEGATIVE GRAVITROPIC RESPONSE OF ROOTS (NGR).

Plant ‘hairy root’ culture

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1999
Due to their fast growth rates and biochemical stability, 'hairy root' cultures remain unsurpassed as the choice for model root systems and have promise as a bioprocessing system. Applications are wide-ranging, from the production of natural products and foreign proteins to a model for phytoremediation of organic and metal contaminants.

Measuring Plant Root Growth

2008
Plants represent a significant part of our natural environment and their detailed study becomes more and more interesting (also economically) because of their importance for mankind as a source of food and/or energy. One of the most characteristic biological processes in plant life is their growth; it serves as a good indicator for the compatibility of

Root exudate signals in plant–plant interactions

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2020
AbstractPlant‐to‐plant signalling is a key mediator of interactions among plant species. Plants can perceive and respond to chemical cues emitted from their neighbours, altering survival and performance, impacting plant coexistence and community assembly. An increasing number of studies indicate root exudates as key players in plant‐to‐plant signalling.

Plant Roots and Soil Structure

2011
There exists significant evidence in the literature that soil structure and plant roots can barely be considered separate entities. Plant root form, length distributions, radius distributions, branching, and overall plant vigor have all be demonstrated to be heavily influenced by soil structure.

Calcium Supply to Plant Roots

Science, 1968
Direct observations of the calcium-45 distribution around the roots of plants growing in soil showed a pattern in direct contrast to that predicted from calculations based on the calcium concentration of the soil solution, transpiration rates, and plant calcium content.
