Key Message: QTLs controlling the concentrations elements in rice grain were identified in two mapping populations. The QTLs were clustered such that most genomic regions were associated with more than one element. In this study, quantitative tra...

Lateral root morphogenesis is dependent on the mechanical properties of the overlaying tissues (2013)
Journal Article

In Arabidopsis, lateral root primordia (LRPs) originate from pericycle cells located deep within the parental root and have to emerge through endodermal, cortical, and epidermal tissues. These overlaying tissues place biomechanical constraints on the... Read More about Lateral root morphogenesis is dependent on the mechanical properties of the overlaying tissues.
