Genetic diversity of candidate genes for root development in rice

Specific objectives were (1) to assess natural genetic variability in root and shoot morphological and anatomical traits in control and water-deficit conditions and their plasticity as

2 Position of genes and QTLs for root cone angle or related traitsIn black, genes from the literature listed in Additional file 1: Table S1 and candidate genes from Table 9; in

c Organization of outer root cell layers (epidermis (ep), exodermis (ex) and sclerenchyma (sc)) are affected in docs1–1 and docs1–2 mutant roots as observed on root cross-sections..

Ave root diam, Average root diameter; CT, canopy temperature; DTF, days to 50% flowering; gS, stomatal conductance; GY, grain yield; L, lowland; LDS, lowland drought stress;

 Gravimetric soil water measured weekly from sowing to 40 days after sowing (DAS) in 0-15 cm soil depth..  Root distribution, shoot dry matter (SDM) and crop nitrogen (N)

In parallel with genetics approaches, efforts have been made to screen mutant libraries for lines presenting alterations in root development, allowing for the identification of

Thus, the meristem in the lateral root seems to work similarly to that in other root types, and the same pattern of division in initials previously described for the radicle meristem

Numerous experimental studies have focused on the role of the implant and of the contact interface: Various surface modifications ( Simank et al. 2006 ) have been proposed to
