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 ...

Physiologia Plantarum, 1982
The mechanical stresses required to buckle root tips were measured directly for seven plant species. For two of these, both seminal and primary lateral roots were measured. For four of the plant species investigated, the easier and more rapid method used to measure the buckling stresses of excised root tips gave results which agree closely with those ...

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 ...

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 ...

Plugging in to plant roots [PDF]
IEEE Spectrum, 2013 Cast-off electrons in a plant's roots can provide electricity, a Dutch team reports. Now, through a spin-off company, it hopes to grow grassy generators on rooftops and promote decentralized electrical production in wetlands in developing countries. Plants exude a variety of waste products that microbes consume, such as glucose, acetate, butyrate, and ...

Fructosebisphosphatase of Plant Roots
Zeitschrift für Pflanzenphysiologie, 1982Summary A specific fructosebisphosphatase has been identified in pea and maize roots. It was separated from a non-specific phosphatase and partially purified using ammonium sulphate fractionation and chromatography on DEAE cellulose. The root fructosebisphosphatase appeared to be located in the cytosol.

Abstract When a plant root meets an interface within soil, either it is deflected or it penetrates the interface and enters the new medium. If the root has just grown across a void, it may buckle when it meets the interface and hence be deflected.

The interaction of soil and root system of plants is considered in this chapter. Particularly, the hierarchical structure of soils and soil agents, which stabilize it at different organization levels, pore classifications, depending on their size, origin, and functionality are presented.

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).
