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.

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.

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, 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.

Plant Roots and Soil Structure
2011There 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.

Swarm intelligence in plant roots
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2010Swarm intelligence in animals and humans has recently been reviewed [1]. These authors posited that swarm intelligence occurs when two or more individuals independently, or at least partly independently, acquire information that is processed through social interactions and is used to solve a cognitive problem in a way that would be impossible for ...

Analysis of plant root electropotentials
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1972Abstract A model is proposed for the analysis of steady-state electropotentials in plant roots. The radial element of this model is discussed in terms of two parallel pathways, i.e. the symplasm and the extracellular space. The symplasm pathway is treated as a system of three compartments in series.

Quarterly Reviews of Biophysics, 1982
The plant root is a complex system that has evolved under the constraints of a number of functions. It is a pressure-probe that can penetrate the soil; it is a scavenger of nutrients that may be either tightly bound to soil particles or in low concentrations in the soil solution; it is an absorber of water from the soil.
