A gene that regulates the development of roots in vascular plants is also involved in the organ development of liverworts—land plants so old they don't even have proper roots. The Kobe University ...
The ability of rice plants to modify their root systems to adapt to the surrounding soil water conditions is a great example of a phenomenon called phenotype plasticity. However, the exact mechanism ...
Biologists have discovered a cellular transporter that links two of the most powerful hormones in plant development -- auxin and cytokinin -- and shows how they regulate root initiation and ...
