Nitrate and phosphate availability and distribution have different effects on root system architecture of Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Journal, 2002
Plant root systems can respond to nutrient availability and distribution by changing the three-dimensional deployment of their roots: their root system architecture (RSA). We have compared RSA in homogeneous and heterogeneous nitrate and phosphate supply

Osmotic regulation of root system architecture [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2005
SummaryAlthough root system architecture is known to be highly plastic and strongly affected by environmental conditions, we have little understanding of the underlying mechanisms controlling root system development. Here we demonstrate that the formation of a lateral root from a lateral root primordium is repressed as water availability is reduced ...

Getting to the roots of it: Genetic and hormonal control of root architecture

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Root system architecture (RSA)--the spatial configuration of a root system--is an important developmental and agronomic trait, with implications for overall plant architecture, growth rate and yield, abiotic stress resistance, nutrient uptake, and ...

Wide–Narrow Row Planting Pattern Increases Root Lodging Resistance by Adjusting Root Architecture and Root Physiological Activity in Maize (Zea mays L.) in Northeast China

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Root lodging (RL) in maize can reduce yield and grain quality. A wide–narrow row planting pattern can increase maize yield in the growing regions of northeastern China, but whether it can improve RL resistance is not clear.

Modeling and Analysis of Root Branching Plasticity Based on Parrondo's Game

open access: yesJournal of Horticultural Research, 2022
For different kinds of plants, the distribution of lateral roots is highly plastic in different growth environments. In particular, the branching distance of the roots plays a decisive role in the formation of the root system architecture.

Data on root system architecture of water efficient maize as affected by different nitrogen fertilizer rates and plant density

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
Root system architecture is a resource with untapped potential for agricultural improvements. The presented data describes the root system architecture of water efficient maize lines to different nitrogen fertilizer rates and plant density at two ...

Characterization of Root System Architecture Traits in Diverse Soybean Genotypes Using a Semi-Hydroponic System

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Phenotypic variation and correlations among root traits form the basis for selecting and breeding soybean varieties with efficient access to water and nutrients and better adaptation to abiotic stresses. Therefore, it is important to develop a simple and

Modulation of Arabidopsis and monocot root architecture by CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION 26 peptide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plant roots are important for a wide range of processes, including nutrient and water uptake, anchoring and mechanical support, storage functions, and as the major interface with the soil environment.

Environmental, developmental, and genetic factors controlling root system architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A better understanding of the development and architecture of roots is essential to develop strategies to increase crop yield and optimize agricultural land use.
