Roots branch towards water by post-translational modification of transcription factor ARF7 (2018)
Journal Article
Orosa Puente, B., Leftley, N., Von Wangenheim, D., Banda, J., Anjil, S., Hill, K., …Bennett, M. (2018). Roots branch towards water by post-translational modification of transcription factor ARF7. Science, 362(6421), 1407-1410. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aau3956

Plants adapt to heterogeneous soil conditions by altering their root architecture. For example, roots branch when in contact with water using the hydropatterning response. We report that hydropatterning is dependent on auxin response factor ARF7. Thi... Read More about Roots branch towards water by post-translational modification of transcription factor ARF7.

Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Xu, L., Towey, D., French, A. P., Benford, S., Zhou, Z. Q., & Chen, T. Y. (2018). Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations. In MET '18: Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Metamorphic Testing (46-53). https://doi.org/10.1145/3193977.3193978

We report on a novel use of metamorphic relations (MRs) in machine learning: instead of conducting metamorphic testing, we use MRs for the augmentation of the machine learning algorithms themselves. In particular, we report on how MRs can enable enha... Read More about Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations.

Root gravitropism: quantification, challenges, and solutions (2018)
Journal Article
Muller, L., Bennett, M. J., French, A., Wells, D. M., & Swarup, R. (2018). Root gravitropism: quantification, challenges, and solutions. Methods in Molecular Biology, 1761, 103-112. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-7747-5_8

© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC. Better understanding of root traits such as root angle and root gravitropism will be crucial for development of crops with improved resource use efficiency. This chapter describes a high-throughput, autom... Read More about Root gravitropism: quantification, challenges, and solutions.
