The Roots of Carnivorous Plants
Plant and Soil, 2005Carnivorous plants may benefit from animal-derived nutrients to supplement minerals from the soil. Therefore, the role and importance of their roots is a matter of debate. Aquatic carnivorous species lack roots completely, and many hygrophytic and epiphytic carnivorous species only have a weakly developed root system.

Root hairs: the villi of plants
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2021Strikingly, evolution shaped similar tubular structures at the µm to mm scale in roots of sessile plants and in small intestines of mobile mammals to ensure an efficient transfer of essential nutrients from ‘dead matter' into biota. These structures, named root hairs (RHs) in plants and villi in mammals, numerously stretch into the environment, and ...

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 ...

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
2022Gravity 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, 2016Plants 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).

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.

Root exudate signals in plant–plant interactions
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2020AbstractPlant‐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.
