DWT1/DWL2 act together with OsPIP5K1 to regulate plant uniform growth in rice (2019)
Journal Article
Fang, F., Ye, S., Tang, J., Bennett, M. J., & Liang, W. (2020). DWT1/DWL2 act together with OsPIP5K1 to regulate plant uniform growth in rice. New Phytologist, 225(3), 1234-1246. https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.16216

• Uniform growth of the main shoot and tillers significantly influences rice plant architecture and grain yield. The WUSCHEL‐related homeobox transcription factor DWT1 is a key regulator of this important agronomic trait, disruption of which causes e...

Lateral Root Formation in Arabidopsis: A Well-Ordered LRexit (2019)
Journal Article
Banda, J., Bellande, K., von Wangenheim, D., Goh, T., Guyomarc’h, S., Laplaze, L., & Bennett, M. J. (2019). Lateral Root Formation in Arabidopsis: A Well-Ordered LRexit. Trends in Plant Science, 24(9), 826-839. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2019.06.015

Lateral roots (LRs) are crucial for increasing the surface area of root systems to explore heterogeneous soil environments. Major advances have recently been made in the model plant arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) to elucidate the cellular basis o...

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...

EXPANSIN A1-mediated radial swelling of pericycle cells positions anticlinal cell divisions during lateral root initiation (2019)
Journal Article
Ramakrishna, P., Ruiz Duarte, P., Rance, G. A., Schubert, M., Vordermaier, V., Vu, L. D., …De Smet, I. (2019). EXPANSIN A1-mediated radial swelling of pericycle cells positions anticlinal cell divisions during lateral root initiation. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 116(17), 8597-8602. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1820882116

In plants, postembryonic formation of new organs helps shape the adult organism. This requires the tight regulation of when and where a new organ is formed and a coordination of the underlying cell divisions. To build a root system, new lateral roots...

Identification of nitrogen-dependent QTL and underlying genes for root system architecture in hexaploid wheat (2019)
Other
Griffiths, M., Atkinson, J. A., Gardiner, L., Swarup, R., Pound, M. P., Wilson, M. H., …Wells, D. M. (2019). Identification of nitrogen-dependent QTL and underlying genes for root system architecture in hexaploid wheat

The root system architecture (RSA) of a crop has a profound effect on the uptake of nutrients and consequently the potential yield. However, little is known about the genetic basis of RSA and resource dependent response in wheat (Triticum aestivum L....
