Inhibition of polyamine homeostasis facilitates root extension by modulating IAA and PIN1 distribution in etiolated salt-stressed sunflower seedlings
Plant root growth and development undergo significant alterations as an adaptation to environmental stressful conditions. Remodeling of roots exposed...

Agrobacterium-mediated rapid and efficient development of transgenics using shoot apex explants in two elite Indica rice cultivars
An efficient multiple shoot induction, plant regeneration, and subsequent genetic transformation system for two locally adapted recalcitrant indica...

Root Apex Cognition: From Neuronal Molecules to Root-Fungal Networks
Plant roots are generally hidden from our sight, growing and living underground in alliances with symbiotic fungi. In order to find enough water and... -
Genetic Mechanisms Regulating Root Cap Cell Renewal in Arabidopsis thaliana L.
AbstractSynchronization of spatially separated processes of cells’ division and loss is crucial in renewal and maintenance of organ and tissue...

Leaves of an invasive shrub induce mass mortality of an amphibian apex predator and its macroinvertebrate prey
Studies of plant invasions have primarily focused on effects within shared habitats of native and invasive species. However, secondary compounds...

Inhibition of cell expansion enhances cortical microtubule stability in the root apex of Arabidopsis thaliana
BackgroundCortical microtubules regulate cell expansion by determining cellulose microfibril orientation in the root apex of Arabidopsis thaliana ....

Silicon relieves aluminum‐induced inhibition of cell elongation in rice root apex by reducing the deposition of aluminum in the cell wall
Background and aimsSilicon (Si) is known to alleviate aluminum (Al) toxicity in a number of plant species; however, the mechanisms of Si-triggered Al...

PRX102 Participates in Root Hairs Tip Growth of Rice
Root hairs are extensions of epidermal cells on the root tips that increase the root contract surface area with the soil. For polar tip growth, newly...

Visualization of root extracellular traps in an ectomycorrhizal woody plant (Pinus densiflora) and their interactions with root-associated bacteria
Main conclusionExtracellular traps in the primary root of Pinus densiflora contribute to root-associated bacterial colonization. Trapped...

Regulation of Root Tissue Size and Adaptations to Hypoxia
Soil flooding restricts gas exchange between the air and the soil. Thus, the oxygen level gradually decreases in the soil through the respiration of... -
Cadmium and copper-induced metabolic and proteomic changes in the root tip during early maize growth
In this study, the metabolic adjustments performed by maize ( Zea mays L.) seminal roots exposed to 25 µM Cd 2+ or 25 µM Cu 2+ at pre-emergence are...

CLE14 Peptide Impairs Root Tip Regeneration and Callogenesis in Arabidopsis
CLE14 belongs into a family of plant secreted peptides that interact with leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinase (LRR-RLK) receptors to orchestrate...

Root-knot Nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.)
Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are the most widespread, have a vast host range, vascular feeder endoparasites, and, therefore, are considered... -
Kill rates and associated ecological factors for an apex predator
Kill rates and functional responses are fundamental to the study of predator ecology and the understanding of predatory-prey dynamics. As the most...

Root phenotypes for improved nitrogen capture
BackgroundSuboptimal nitrogen availability is a primary constraint for crop production in low-input agroecosystems, while nitrogen fertilization is a...

Genetic variation and morphogenetic determinants of root-shoot allocation in two perennial forage legumes
Background and aimsRoot phenoty** and breeding for desirable root traits have been limited in small seed forage species. The objectives of this...

Early responses of maize seedlings to Cu stress include sharp decreases in gibberellins and jasmonates in the root apex
Copper (Cu) interferes with numerous biological functions in plants, including plant growth, which is partly governed by plant hormones. In the...

Alterations in the root phenylpropanoid pathway and root–shoot vessel system as main determinants of the drought tolerance of a soybean genotype
Climate change increases precipitation variability, particularly in savanna environments. We have used integrative strategies to understand the...
