Hydrotropism in the primary roots of maize [PDF]
Summary Recent studies mainly in Arabidopsis have renewed interest and discussion in some of the key issues in hydrotropism of roots, such as the site of water sensing and the involvement of auxin. We examined hydrotropism in maize (Zea mays) primary roots. We determined the site of water sensing along the root using a nonintrusive method.

Effects of Elevated Temperature on Root System Development of Two Lupine Species
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of elevated temperature on the growth, morphology and spatial orientation of lupine roots at the initial stages of development and on the formation of lupine root architecture at later stages.

MAIL1 is essential for development of the primary root but not of anchor roots [PDF]
MAIN-LIKE1 (MAIL1) is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein, which has a crucial function during root development. We have recently described loss of function mutants for MAIL1, in which the organization and function of the primary root meristem is lost soon after germination.

Double-rooted primary canines: A report of three cases
This article reports three rare cases of birooted primary canines. In one of the three cases reported, the double-rooted primary canine was unilateral, which is a unique condition in the dental literature.

Metabolic responses to combined water deficit and salt stress in maize primary roots
Soil water deficit and salt stress are major limiting factors of plant growth and agricultural productivity. The primary root is the first organ to perceive the stress signals for drought and salt stress.

The roles of microRNAs in regulating root formation and growth in plants
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small (ca. 20–24 nucleotides) non-coding RNAs that have recently been recognized as key post-transcriptional modulators of gene expression; and they are involved in many biological processes in plants, such as root growth and ...

Gravity Signal Transduction in Primary Roots [PDF]
The molecular mechanisms that correlate with gravity perception and signal transduction in the tip of angiosperm primary roots are discussed.Gravity provides a cue for downward orientation of plant roots, allowing anchorage of the plant and uptake of the water and nutrients needed for growth and development.
