Root interactions of plants

The Botanical Review, 1937
"The roots of plants are the least known, least understood and least appreciated part of the plant."-Weaver and Bruner. As one surveys the monumental literature dealing with crop production, the small fraction thereof devoted to roots and the absorptive processes seems entirely out of proportion to their importance.

At the Roots of Plant Neurobiology

2012
If biology throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries was dominated by the metaphor of the machine, the metaphor underlying twenty first century biology is that of the network or web. A rapid proliferation of molecular data coupled with increased computational power has revealed that gene regulation, protein interaction, the topology of ...

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.

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.

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.

Plant root exudates

The Botanical Review, 1969
Although the quantities of organic compounds exuding from roots is not large, seldom exceeding 0.4% of the carbon photosynthesized, they do exert a very strong influence on the soil microorganisms and may be significant in affecting plant nutrient availability.

Transport across plant roots

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.

Plant Root Interactions

2011
The modular structure of plant root systems enables a high degree of flexibility (or plasticity) in responding to prevailing conditions in the soil, including resource distribution. However, more recently, it has been suggested that root-root interactions are more sophisticated than simply being driven by resource availability alone.

Analysis of plant root electropotentials

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1972
Abstract 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.
