The Evolutionary Root of Flowering Plants [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2012 Correct rooting of the angiosperm radiation is both challenging and necessary for understanding the origins and evolution of physiological and phenotypic traits in flowering plants. The problem is known to be difficult due to the large genetic distance separating flowering plants from other seed plants and the sparse taxon sampling among basal ...

Gradient NMR Method for Studies of Water Translational Diffusion in Plants
Membranes, 2021 The review of a retrospective nature shows the stages of development of the spin-echo NMR method with constant and pulsed gradient of the magnetic field (gradient NMR) for the study of water diffusion in plant roots.

On plant roots logical gates [PDF]
Biosystems, 2017 Theoretical constructs of logical gates implemented with plant roots are morphological computing asynchronous devices. Values of Boolean variables are represented by plant roots. A presence of a plant root at a given site symbolises the logical {\sc True}, an absence the logical {\sc False}.

Root volatiles in plant–plant interactions II: Root volatiles alter root chemistry and plant–herbivore interactions of neighbouring plants [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2019 AbstractVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by plant roots can influence the germination and growth of neighbouring plants. However, little is known about the effects of root VOCs on plant–herbivore interactions of neighbouring plants. The spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe) constitutively releases high amounts of sesquiterpenes into the ...

A framework to assess the carbon supply-consumption balance in plant roots.
New Phytologist, 2020 Plant uptake and transportation of resources, such as water, nutrients and photosynthates, are crucial for plant growth, and a main driver of ecosystem functioning and community responses to environmental changes (Evert, 2006; Ma et al., 2018; Steidinger

How Abiotic Stress Conditions Affects Plant Roots
Plant Roots [Working Title], 2020 Roots are generally subject to more abiotic stress than shoots. Therefore, they can be affected by such stresses as much as, or even more, than above ground parts of a plant.

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2023 Plants require sunlight, carbon dioxide, water and mineral ions for their growth and development. Roots in vascular plants sequester water and ions from soil and transport them to the aboveground parts of the plant.
