Earthworms and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Alleviated Salt Stress in Maize Seedlings by Regulating the Root Endodermis Diffusion Barrier
Under salt stress, the root system is the first barrier in plant resistance. Endodermal suberin in plant roots can act as a diffusion barrier to...

Confocal Analysis of Arabidopsis Root Cell Divisions in 3D: A Focus on the Endodermis
The development of multicellular organisms requires coordinated cell divisions for the production of diverse cell types and body plan elaboration and... -
A suberized exodermis is required for tomato drought tolerance
Plant roots integrate environmental signals with development using exquisite spatiotemporal control. This is apparent in the deposition of suberin,...

Plasmodesmata callose binding protein 2 contributes to the regulation of cambium/phloem formation and auxin response during the tissue reunion process in incised Arabidopsis stem
Plants are exposed to a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses, including wounding at the stem. The healing process (tissue reunion) begins...

Pulvinus and petiole comparative anatomy in a species of Mimosa with slow nyctinastic leaf movement
The pulvinus is the thickening at the base of leguminous plant leaves responsible for rapid or slow leaf movements. The structural characteristics of...

Gibberellin and abscisic acid transporters facilitate endodermal suberin formation in Arabidopsis
The plant hormone gibberellin (GA) regulates multiple developmental processes. It accumulates in the root elongating endodermis, but how it moves...

Arabidopsis class II TPS controls root development and confers salt stress tolerance through enhanced hydrophobic barrier deposition
Key messageThe mechanism of conferring salt tolerance by AtTPS9 involves enhanced deposition of suberin lamellae in the Arabidopsis root endodermis,...

Anatomical study on the developmental process of the swollen internodes of Phryma (Phrymaceae, eudicots)
Main conclusionWe discovered that the internodal swellings of Phryma (eudicots) stems were same as the internodal pulvini of Poaceae (monocots) from...

Raman developmental markers in root cell walls are associated with lodging tendency in tef
Main conclusionUsing Raman micro-spectroscopy on tef roots, we could monitor cell wall maturation in lines with varied genetic lodging tendency. We...

Assessment of cell wall histochemistry of velamentous epiphytic roots in adaptive response of micropropagated plantlets of Vanda tessellata (Roxb.) Hook. ex G. Don
Velamentous roots of orchids are desiccation resistant and help in anchorage and absorption of water and nutrients. The specialized multi-layered,...

BIG coordinates auxin and SHORT ROOT to promote asymmetric stem cell divisions in Arabidopsis roots
Key messageBIG regulates ground tissue formative divisions by bridging the auxin gradient with SHR abundance in Arabidopsis roots.

Regulation of stomatal development by epidermal, subepidermal and long-distance signals
Plant leaves consist of three layers, including epidermis, mesophyll and vascular tissues. Their development is meticulously orchestrated. Stomata...

Extreme drought enhances Opuntia ficus-indica fine root cells elasticity preventing permanent damage
Succulent plants survive under extreme environments, and their roots are at the frontline of the drying soil. Previous works have reported reversible...

Root Silicification and Plant Resistance to Stress
Silicon is taken together with water and transported into the roots through passive ion channels (Lsi1) and transporters (Lsi2 and Lsi3) and then... -
Drought-Induced Modifications on the Outer Part of the Root (OPR) and Root Endodermis of Selected Rice Genotypes
Rice production is oftentimes confronted by environmental constraints such as drought which affects the water uptake of roots. The internal...

Asymmetric gene expression and cell-type-specific regulatory networks in the root of bread wheat revealed by single-cell multiomics analysis
BackgroundHomoeologs are defined as homologous genes resulting from allopolyploidy. Bread wheat, Triticum aestivum , is an allohexaploid species with...

Water Limitation Alters the Expression of Calcium Transporters in Eucalypt Roots
Calcium (Ca) plays an important role in increasing drought tolerance in plants, but the mechanisms behind increased Ca uptake and accumulation in...

Structural plasticity in roots of the hemiepiphyte Vanilla phaeantha Rchb.f. (Orchidaceae): a relationship between environment and function
The aerial environment appears to structurally modify roots, which frequently show specializations for absorbing water and nutrients. Among those...

Zoom-in to molecular mechanisms underlying root growth and function under heterogeneous soil environment and abiotic stresses
Main conclusionThe review describes tissue-specific and non-cell autonomous molecular responses regulating the root system architecture and function...
