SHORT - ROOT is a key regulator of root development
SHORT-ROOT (SHR) is a well characterised regulator of radial patterning and indeterminacy of the Arabidopsis primary root. However, its role during the elaboration of root system architecture (RSA) remains unclear. We report that the indeterminate wild-type Arabidopsis root system was transformed into a determinate root system in the short-root (shr) mutant when growing in soil or agar. The roo...
متن کاملPhenotypic plasticity and water flux rates of Citrus root orders under salinity
Knowledge about the root system structure and the uptake efficiency of root orders is critical to understand the adaptive plasticity of plants towards salt stress. Thus, this study describes the phenological and physiological plasticity of Citrus volkameriana rootstocks under severe NaCl stress on the level of root orders. Phenotypic root traits known to influence uptake processes, for example ...
متن کاملA split-root technique for measuring root water potential.
Water encounters various resistances in moving along a path of decreasing potential energy from the soil through the plant to the atmosphere. The reported relative magnitudes of these pathway resistances vary widely and often these results are conflicting. One reason for such inconsistency is the difficulty in measuring the potential drop across various segments of the soil-plant-atmosphere con...
متن کاملRole of a single aquaporin isoform in root water uptake.
Aquaporins are ubiquitous channel proteins that facilitate the transport of water across cell membranes. Aquaporins show a typically high isoform multiplicity in plants, with 35 homologs in Arabidopsis. The integrated function of plant aquaporins and the function of each individual isoform remain poorly understood. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight analyses suggested th...
