Fine Root Traits across Different Root Orders and Their Associations with Leaf Traits in 15 Co-Occurring Plant Species from the Desert–Oasis Transition Zone in the Hexi Corridor, Gansu Province, China

Plants
Fine root traits embody trade-offs between resource acquisition and conservation in plants. Yet, the differentiation of these traits across root orders, the existence of a root economics spectrum (RES) spanning these orders, and their linkage with leaf ...

Assessment of genetic variability, character association, heritability and path analysis in European carrot (Daucus carota var. sativa)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2019
Studies of genetic variability and relationship among the 40 genotypes of European carrot (Daucus carota L. var sativa) for important horticultural traits revealed wide range of variability for the traits.

Genetic analysis of root vascular traits in a population from two temperate japonica rice ecotypes

Plant Production Science, 2022
The genetic basis for root vascular traits in rice, despite its direct impacts on root axial and radial hydraulic conductivity, has not been widely studied compared with deep rooting traits. We used five phenotyping datasets (i.e.

Intraspecific variation in root and leaf traits and leaf-root trait linkages in eight aspen demes (<i>Populus tremula</i> and <i>P. tremuloides</i>)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Leaf and fine root morphology and physiology have been found to vary considerably among tree species, but not much is known about intraspecific variation in root traits and their relatedness to leaf traits.

Differences in Root Morphologies of Contrasting Wheat (Triticum aestivum) Genotypes Are Robust of a Drought Treatment

Plants, 2023
We aimed to assess the effect of water deprivation on root traits and to establish if the wheat cultivars Spica and Maringa would be useful as parental germplasm for a genetic analysis of root traits.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Timing matters: Distinct effects of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer application timing on root system architecture responses

Plant-Environment Interactions, 2021
Aims Although different plant foraging responses to the two macronutrients nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are well researched, the effect of timing of fertilizer application on root system architecture (RSA) remains largely unknown. We, therefore, aimed

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Genomic prediction of yield and root development in wheat under changing water availability

Plant Methods, 2020
Background Deeper roots help plants take up available resources in deep soil ensuring better growth and higher yields under conditions of drought. A large-scale semi-field root phenotyping facility was developed to allow a water availability gradient and
