The auxin efflux carrier PIN1a regulates vascular patterning in cereal roots (2024)
Journal Article
Fusi, R., Milner, S. G., Rosignoli, S., Bovina, R., De Jesus Vieira Teixeira, C., Lou, H., Atkinson, B. S., Borkar, A. N., York, L. M., Jones, D. H., Sturrock, C. J., Stein, N., Mascher, M., Tuberosa, R., O'Connor, D., Bennett, M. J., Bishopp, A., Salvi, S., & Bhosale, R. (2024). The auxin efflux carrier PIN1a regulates vascular patterning in cereal roots. New Phytologist, https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.19777

Barley (Hordeum vulgare) is an important global cereal crop and a model in genetic studies. Despite advances in characterising barley genomic resources, few mutant studies have identified genes controlling root architecture and anatomy, which plays a...

Emergent Protective Organogenesis in Date Palms: A Morpho-devo-dynamic Adaptive Strategy During Early Development (2019)
Journal Article
Xiao, T., Raygoza, A. A., Pérez, J. C., Kirschner, G., Deng, Y., Atkinson, B., …Blilou, I. (2019). Emergent Protective Organogenesis in Date Palms: A Morpho-devo-dynamic Adaptive Strategy During Early Development. Plant Cell, 31(8), 1751-1766. https://doi.org/10.1105/tpc.19.00008

Desert plants have developed mechanisms for adapting to hostile desert conditions, yet these mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we describe two unique modes used by desert date palms (Phoenix dactylifera L.) to protect their meristematic tiss...

Roots-eye view: using microdialysis and microCT to non-destructively map root nutrient depletion and accumulation zones (2017)
Journal Article
Brackin, R., Atkinson, B. S., Sturrock, C. J., & Rasmussen, A. (2017). Roots-eye view: using microdialysis and microCT to non-destructively map root nutrient depletion and accumulation zones. Plant, Cell and Environment, 40(12), https://doi.org/10.1111/pce.13072

Improvement in fertiliser use efficiency is a key aspect for achieving sustainable agriculture in order to minimise costs, greenhouse gas emissions and pollution from nutrient runoff. To optimise root architecture for nutrient uptake and efficiency w...
