A secreted peptide acts on BIN2-mediated phosphorylation of ARFs to potentiate auxin response during lateral root development (2013)
Journal Article

The phytohormone auxin is a key developmental signal in plants. So far, only auxin perception has been described to trigger the release of transcription factors termed AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORs (ARFs) from their AUXIN/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID (AUX/IAA) repr...

Effects of X-ray dose on rhizosphere studies using X-ray computed tomography (2013)
Journal Article

X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) is a non-destructive imaging technique originally designed for diagnostic medicine, which was adopted for rhizosphere and soil science applications in the early 1980s. X-ray CT enables researchers to simultaneously visu... Read More about Effects of X-ray dose on rhizosphere studies using X-ray computed tomography.

RootNav: navigating images of complex root architectures (2013)
Journal Article

We present a novel image analysis tool that allows the semiautomated quantification of complex root system architectures in a range of plant species grown and imaged in a variety of ways. The automatic component of RootNav takes a top-down approach,... Read More about RootNav: navigating images of complex root architectures.

Recovering complete plant root system architectures from soil via X-ray ?-computed tomography (2013)
Journal Article

Background: X-ray micro-Computed Tomography (μCT) offers the ability to visualise the three-dimensional structure of plant roots growing in their natural environment – soil. Recovery of root architecture descriptions from X-ray CT data is, however,... Read More about Recovering complete plant root system architectures from soil via X-ray ?-computed tomography.

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.

Biosensors for phytohormone quantification: challenges, solutions, and opportunities (2013)
Journal Article

Fluorescent reporters are valuable tools for plant science research, particularly as sensors to monitor biological signals and developmental processes. Such biosensors are particularly useful to monitor the spatial and temporal distribution of small...
