Coordination of root growth with root morphology, physiology and defense functions in response to root pruning in Platycladus orientalis

Journal of Advanced Research, 2022
Introduction: Root pruning is commonly used to facilitate seedling transplantation for the restoration of degraded or damaged ecosystems. However, little is known about how root growth coordinates morphology, physiology and defense functions following ...

Potassium in Root Growth and Development [PDF]

Plants, 2019
Potassium is an essential macronutrient that has been partly overshadowed in root science by nitrogen and phosphorus. The current boom in potassium-related studies coincides with an emerging awareness of its importance in plant growth, metabolic functions, stress tolerance, and efficient agriculture.

Alkalinity modulates a unique suite of genes to recalibrate growth and pH homeostasis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Alkaline soils pose a conglomerate of constraints to plants, restricting the growth and fitness of non-adapted species in habitats with low active proton concentrations.

A New Strategy to Improve Vineyard Resilience: Grapevine Morphological Adaptation to Short-Term Nitrogen Deficiency

Agronomy, 2022
Nitrogen (N) deficiency causes a morphological disequilibrium between shoots and roots, favoring hypogeal growth. Our hypothesis is that short-term nitrogen deficiency could induce an increase in vine resilience, inducing root growth before the ...

Winter Pruning: Effect on Root Density, Root Distribution and Root/Canopy Ratio in Vitis vinifera cv. Pinot Gris

Agronomy, 2020
As in any other plant, the grapevine roots play a vital role in terms of anchorage, uptake of water and nutrients, as well as storage and production of chemicals.

The persistent impact of drought stress on the resilience of summer maize

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Crop resilience refers to the adaptive ability of crops to resist drought at a certain level. Currently, most of the research focuses on the changes in root or photosynthesis traits of crops after drought and rehydration.

Root hair sweet growth [PDF]

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2011
Root hairs are single cells specialized in the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Growing root hairs require intensive cell-wall changes to accommodate cell expansion at the apical end by a process known as tip or polarized growth. We have recently shown that cell wall glycoproteins such as extensions (EXTs) are essential components of ...

Biomass Allocation Responses to Root Interactions in Wheat Cultivars Support Predictions of Crop Evolutionary Ecology Theory

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The goal of agriculture is to optimize the population yield, but natural selection has produced active competition among plants, which decreases population performance.
