Root cap and root growth

Planta, 1972
The caps of the roots of Zea mays (var. Kelvedon 33) are the source of a growth inhibitor system which also acts on the root elongation of Lens culinaris.

Physics of Root Growth

Nature New Biology, 1972
THE elongation of a plant cell involves the yielding of the cell wall under the action of tensile stresses in the wall1. The rate of elongation, R, can be expressed simply as R=mW, where m is the extensibility of the cell wall material and W is the wall pressure.

Root Growth and Rooting of Basswood

Botanical Gazette, 1968
Seedling root growth of basswood (Tilia americana L.) was observed in soil pits between nursery rows, in pots (by inverting the soil ball), and in Lucite cylinders in the greenhouse. Root growth occurred primarily during late spring, summer, and fall in the nursery. It occurred throughout the year in the greenhouse.

Measuring Plant Root Growth

2008
Plants represent a significant part of our natural environment and their detailed study becomes more and more interesting (also economically) because of their importance for mankind as a source of food and/or energy. One of the most characteristic biological processes in plant life is their growth; it serves as a good indicator for the compatibility of

Growth components in Allium roots

Planta, 1970
This paper reports results of a study of root growth, duration of the division cycle, and cell size for different intervals of root length, associated with different phases of growth, namely, from the onset of growth to the achievement of a steady state characterized by a constant rate of growth.

Dynamics of root growth in microgravity

Journal of Biotechnology, 1996
An experiment to study the growth of garden cress roots in microgravity is described. The experiment, denoted RANDOM, was an ESA Biorack experiment in the IML-2 flight in July 1994. In the absence of gravity, it can be anticipated that the roots would show random growth, changing their direction randomly.

Roots and Growth

2019
When I was a sophomore at Big Sandy High School, we started a new club: speech and debate. I liked it better than any other extracurricular activity because it was easy to make friends with people from all over the state. In sports, you shook hands with the other team after the game, but you didn’t really mix with them much—the objective was to beat ...

The Dynamics of Root Growth: A Geometric Model

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2017
A new model for macroscopic root growth based on a dynamical Riemannian geometry is presented. Assuming that the thickness of the root is much less than its length, the model is restricted to growth in one dimension (1D). We treat 1D tissues as continuous, deformable, growing geometries for sizes larger than 1 mm.

Adverse Effect of Shoot Growth on Root Growth in Rooted Cuttings of Aspen

Physiologia Plantarum, 1971
AbstractIn experiments with rooted cuttings of aspen (Populus tremula L). with a small leaf area, it was found that the roots grew well as long as there was no shoot growth. The onset of shoot growth was followed by a period of decreased root growth. When the leaf area had increased sufficiently, root growth recovered.
