Identification and characterization of candidate genes for primary root length in Asiatic cotton (Gossypium arboreum L.)
Key messageOne major gene controlling primary root length (PRL) in Gossypium arboreum is identified and this research provides a theoretical basis...

BR regulates wheat root salt tolerance by maintaining ROS homeostasis
Main conclusionTrace amounts of epibrassinolide (EpiBL) could partially rescue wheat root length inhibition in salt-stressed situation by scavenging...

Root system architecture of Pinus ponderosa three decades after copper root pruning in a container nursery
We revisited a Pinus ponderosa planting 32 years after it was established with one-year-old seedlings grown in copper-treated containers that...

Involvement of reactive oxygen species in zinc-deficiency induced inhibition of crown root growth in maize plant
Background and aimsThe levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) including superoxide anion radical (O 2 •− ), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) increase in...

Changes in root architecture and endogenous hormone levels in alfalfa under phosphorus stress
To explain changes in plant growth, root architecture, and endogenous hormones of different root-type alfalfa to phosphorus (P) stress (non-stressed...

Drought- and soil substrate-induced variations in root nonstructural carbohydrates result from fine root morphological and anatomical traits of Juglans mandshurica seedlings
BackgroundNonstructural carbohydrates (NSCs) reflect the carbon supply status and affect the construction and development of plants. Previous studies...

Overexpression of OsERF106MZ promotes parental root growth in rice seedlings by relieving the ABA-mediated inhibition of root growth under salinity stress conditions
BackgroundRoots are essential for plant growth and have a variety of functions, such as anchoring the plant to the ground, absorbing water and...

Injection-based hairy root induction and plant regeneration techniques in Brassicaceae
BackgroundHairy roots constitute a valuable tissue culture system for species that are difficult to propagate through conventional seed-based...

Maize, wheat, and soybean root traits depend upon soil phosphorus fertility and mycorrhizal status
Strong effects of plant identity, soil nutrient availability or mycorrhizal fungi on root traits have been well documented, but their interactive...

Research advances in plant root geotropism
Plants cannot grow or develop properly without the support of their roots. Gravity plays an essential role in the formation of the root structure,...

Coordination among leaf and fine-root traits along a strong natural soil fertility gradient
Background and aimsUnravelling how fundamental axes of leaf and fine-root trait variation correlate and relate to nutrient availability is crucial...

Chemotaxis in Root-Knot Nematodes
For a long time, chemotaxis in root-knot nematodes has received scant attention. In recent years, however, this topic has captured the attention of... -
An overall review on influence of root architecture on soil carbon sequestration potential
Soil carbon sequestration is a vital ecosystem function that mitigates climate change by absorbing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Root...
