SHORT-ROOT stabilizes PHOSPHATE1 to regulate phosphate allocation in Arabidopsis
The coordinated distribution of inorganic phosphate (Pi) between roots and shoots is an important process that plants use to maintain Pi homeostasis....

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.

Extracellular nitric oxide sustains root surface redox activity and growth under sudden flooding-induced hypoxic conditions in barley root tips
Main conclusionNitric oxide sustains root tip surface redox activity and restricts lipid peroxidation-triggered cell death in the root tips.

Short-term responses of root traits and carbon exudation to drought in a Larix gmelinii plantation
AimsRoot exudation, an important input of carbon (C) into soils, affects plant-soil feedbacks and ecosystem response to environmental change. Most of...

Physiological and Biochemical Mechanisms of Prunus sachalinensis Root for Co** with Short-term Waterlogging and Subsequent Recovery
Heavy summer rain increases the risk of waterlogging in cherry-producing areas in China. However, the mechanisms underlying the responses of cherries...

Modeling cassava root system architecture and the underlying dynamics in shoot–root carbon allocation during the early storage root bulking stage
Background and aimsPlants store carbohydrates for later use during, e.g., night, drought, and recovery after stress. Carbon allocation presents the...

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... -
BRIP1 and BRIP2 maintain root meristem by affecting auxin-mediated regulation
Main conclusionThis study reveals that mutations in BRIP1/2 subunits of the BAS complex disrupt root meristem development by decreasing PIN genes...

Effects of stand condition and root density on fine-root dynamics across root functional groups in a subtropical montane forest
Fine roots play key roles in belowground C cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Based on their distinct functions, fine roots are either absorptive...

Differential spatial plasticity response in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) root architecture under water stress is driven by increased root diameter, surface area and volume at deeper layers
Root plasticity enables plants to adapt to spatial and temporal changes in soil resources. In this study, 40 common bean genotypes evaluated for two...

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... -
A conditional mutation in a wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) gene regulating root morphology
Key messageCharacterisation and genetic map** of a key gene defining root morphology in bread wheat.
AbstractRoot morphology is central to plants...
