microRNA165 and 166 modulate response of the Arabidopsis root apical meristem to salt stress [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2023 In plants, developmental plasticity allows for the modulation of organ growth in response to environmental cues. Being in contact with soil, roots are the first organ that responds to various types of soil abiotic stress such as high salt concentration ...

Function and regulation of transcription factors involved in root apical meristem and stem cell maintenance [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Plant roots are essential for overall plant development, growth and performance by providing anchorage in the soil and uptake of nutrients and water. The primary root of higher plants derives from a group of pluripotent, mitotically active stem cells ...

The antibiotic peptaibol alamethicin from Trichoderma permeabilises Arabidopsis root apical meristem and epidermis but is antagonised by cellulase-induced resistance to alamethicin [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2018 Background Trichoderma fungi live in the soil rhizosphere and are beneficial for plant growth and pathogen resistance. Several species and strains are currently used worldwide in co-cultivation with crops as a biocontrol alternative to chemical ...

Overexpression of the WOX5 gene inhibits shoot development
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022 WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX 5 (WOX5) is a member of the WUSCHEL (WUS) homeodomain transcription factor family. WOX5 is expressed mainly in the quiescent center (QC) and confers stem cell identity in the root apical meristem (RAM).

Shoot stem cell specification in roots by the WUSCHEL transcription factor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The WUSCHEL homeobox transcription factor is required to specify stem-cell identity at the shoot apical meristem and its ectopic expression is sufficient to induce de novo shoot meristem formation.
