Lotus japonicus plants homozygous for a mutation in the hypernodulation aberrant root (har1) locus escape this regulation and form an excessive number of nodules. Here we report the molecular cloning and expression analysis of the HAR1 gene and the pea orthologue, Pisum sativum, SYM29. HAR1 ...
Climate change is driving extreme changes to the environment, posing substantial threats to global food security and bioenergy. Given the direct role of plant roots in mediating plant-environment interactions, engineering the form and function of root sy

The rice UDP-N-acetylglucosamine biosynthesis-related gene OsGNA1 controls root elongation, as the loss-of-function mutant Osgna1 exhibited a temperature-sensitive defect in root elongation, with disrupted microtubules and cell shrinkage in the root elongation zone (Jiang et al. 2005). A putative ...
analysis constrained by ‘light’ and conducted independently for root and matrix samples indicated a significant effect of the light condition on B community composition in roots (‘light’, 11.9%,P < 0.001) but not in surrounding peat samples (‘light’,P = 0.606, Fig.2b). In ...
background, and the objects smaller than 0.02 cm2were treated as debris and removed from the analysis with the system of “debris and rough edges filters”. In order to analyze the AM colonization of the roots, the roots sandwiched between each rectangular sheet were cut into every 5 mm in...
Through quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis, previous studies have found several loci controlling CG content in cassava roots, but did not provide conclusive information on the genetic basis of CG variation due to limitations in available genomic resources and QTL detection power [39,40]. More...
locus controlling root growth angle.DRO1is negatively regulated by auxin and is involved in cell elongation in the root tip that causes asymmetric root growth and downward bending of the root in response to gravity. Higher expression ofDRO1increases the root growth angle, whereby roots grow in ...
rapa3 showed a shorter average gene locus length (1724 bp in radish and 2015 bp in B. rapa) and a longer mean exon length (266 bp in radish and 233 bp in B. rapa). To complement the annotation of the genome sequence, gene models were mapped to the longest 53,846 open ...
In addition, the user may alter the root hierarchy, whorls, or soil line interactively using mouse and keyboard controls (see Supplemental Fig. 1). More instructions can be found on the GitHub page. Conclusion We introduced TopoRoot+, a high-throughput pipeline for fine-grained phenotyping of ...
