Interactions between nitric oxide, gibberellic acid, and phosphorus regulate primary root growth in Arabidopsis

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
Nitric oxide (NO), gibberellic acid (GA), and phosphorus (P) have been reported to regulate primary root (PR) growth, but interactions between them in the growth of Arabidopsis PR remain unknown.

Characterization of Cover Crop Rooting Types from Integration of Rhizobox Imaging and Root Atlas Information

Plants, 2019
Plant root systems are essential for sustainable agriculture, conveying resource-efficient genotypes and species with benefits to soil ecosystem functions. Targeted selection of species/genotypes depends on available root system information.

Genotype by environment interaction effect and fresh root yield stability of cassava genotypes under contrasting nitrogen regimes

Scientific Reports
Nitrogen (N) is an important nutrient element needed by cassava for optimum yield and it is a vital component of nucleotides (nucleic acids), enzymes, amino acids (proteins), chlorophyll molecules and hormones, among other essential compounds required ...

A system for rapid eDNA detection of aquatic invasive species

Environmental DNA, 2020
Environmental DNA (eDNA) detection of aquatic invasive species using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a powerful tool for resource managers, but qPCR has traditionally been confined to laboratory analysis.

Characterization of Purple Acid Phosphatase Family and Functional Analysis of GmPAP7a/7b Involved in Extracellular ATP Utilization in Soybean

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Low phosphate (Pi) availability limits crop growth and yield in acid soils. Although root-associated acid phosphatases (APases) play an important role in extracellular organic phosphorus (P) utilization, they remain poorly studied in soybean (Glycine max)

Genetic improvement of legume roots for adaption to acid soils

Crop Journal, 2023
Acid soils occupy approximately 50% of potentially arable lands. Improving crop productivity in acid soils, therefore, will be crucial for ensuring food security and agricultural sustainability.

Exogenous application of EE-GRSP and changes in citrus rhizosphere properties

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2015
Mycorrhization-induced secretion of glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) is known to contribute in improving soil fertility and aggregate stability. But, there is hardly any evidence that exogenous GRSP could produce the similar type of response.
