Engineering root development with high precision

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual framework for precise engineering of root development. Summary Root development is controlled by dynamic interactions between gene regulation, hormonal signalling, developmental history and environmental inputs, creating multiple layers of control that can be harnessed for engineering.

Belowground growth is the primary driver of radial oxygen loss from Typha angustifolia to sediment

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Oxygen pool accompanying the growth of a new Typha angustifolia rhizome through anoxic sediment. Summary Wetland plants must supply oxygen to their rhizomes and roots to maintain aerobic respiration despite soil anoxia. Excess oxygen can diffuse into the environment, strongly affecting rhizosphere biogeochemistry.

Recent plant photosynthate as a driver of ecological and evolutionary processes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Timeline of key eco‐evolutionary outcomes arising from belowground allocation of recent plant photosynthate from shoots. Summary Plants rapidly allocate carbon from photosynthesis belowground via root exudates and root‐associated microorganisms. Here we synthesise recent evidence of our understanding of the consequences of this ‘fast’ pathway of recent

A beneficial root endophyte buffers natural variation in pathogen susceptibility across Arabidopsis accessions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Beneficial symbionts act as ecological stabilizers that mitigate differential pathogen susceptibility within natural plant populations. Summary Host genetic diversity shapes pathogen susceptibility within plant populations, raising the question of whether beneficial root microbes can buffer these differences.

Root age structure governs long‐term architecture and hydraulic function in perennial plants: a modelling framework

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual overview of the perennial extensions implemented in CPlantBox, implemented for Vitis vinifera. Summary Perennial root systems develop over decades and exhibit continuous turnover of structural and absorptive components, yet most root architecture models treat woody roots as permanent and neglect root age structure.

The TaCOMT1A‐Synthesised Sakuranetin Is a Novel Biostimulant Enhancing Drought Tolerance and Yield in Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major limitation to global wheat production. Here, we demonstrate that the wheat gene TaCOMT1A, encoding a caffeic acid O‐methyltransferase, plays a crucial role in enhancing drought tolerance in wheat. Overexpression of TaCOMT1A significantly improved drought tolerance at the seedling stage, as evidenced by higher survival
