Abstract Background Plant roots sense and respond to changes in their soil environment, but conversely contribute rhizosphere organization through chemical, mechanical biotic interactions. Transcriptomic profiling of plant can be used assess how the adjusts its gene expression relation genotype processes; thus enabling us achieve a better understanding root-soil Methods We standardized column e...

Land plants develop filamentous cells-root hairs, rhizoids, and caulonemata-at the interface with the soil. Members of the group XI basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors encoded by LOTUS JAPONICUS ROOTHAIRLESS1-LIKE (LRL) genes positively regulate the development of root hairs in the angiosperms Lotus japonicus, Arabidopsis thaliana, and rice (Oryza sativa). Here we show that auxi...

Concrete piles that were poorly constructed or analyzed in their soil analyses may have structural geotechnical defects. To examine such defects, an experimental study was conducted to investigate how a defective reinforced concrete pile behaved. These installed and subjected compression axial load the sand had relative densities of 30%,60%, 80%. The tests performed using four model piles: one ...
