Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops (2024)
Journal Article
Kong, X., Xiong, Y., Song, X., Wadey, S., Yu, S., Rao, J., …Huang, G. (2024). Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops. Plant Physiology, Article kiae134. https://doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiae134

Root angle is a critical factor in optimizing the acquisition of essential resources from different soil depths. The regulation of root angle relies on the auxin-mediated root gravitropism machinery. While the influence of ethylene on auxin levels is... Read More about Ethylene regulates auxin-mediated root gravitropic machinery and controls root angle in cereal crops.

Journal Article
Ho, W. K., Tanzi, A. S., Sang, F., Tsoutsoura, N., Shah, N., Moore, C., …Mayes, S. (2024). A genomic toolkit for winged bean Psophocarpus tetragonolobus. Nature Communications, 15(1), Article 1901. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-45048-x

A sustainable supply of plant protein is critical for future generations and needs to be achieved while reducing green house gas emissions from agriculture and increasing agricultural resilience in the face of climate volatility. Agricultural diversi... Read More about A genomic toolkit for winged bean Psophocarpus tetragonolobus.

Genetic regulation of the root angle in cereals (2024)
Journal Article
Kirschner, G. K., Hochholdinger, F., Salvi, S., Bennett, M. J., Huang, G., & Bhosale, R. A. (2024). Genetic regulation of the root angle in cereals. Trends in Plant Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2024.01.008

The root angle plays a critical role in efficiently capturing nutrients and water from different soil layers. Steeper root angles enable access to mobile water and nitrogen from deeper soil layers, whereas shallow root angles facilitate the capture o...
