Journal Article
Kamiya, T., Borghi, M., Wang, P., Danku, J., Kalmbach, L., Hosmani, P. S., …Salt, D. E. (2015). The MYB36 transcription factor orchestrates Casparian strip formation. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 112(33), https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1507691112

The endodermis in roots acts as a selectivity filter for nutrient and water transport essential for growth and development. This selectivity is enabled by the formation of lignin-based Casparian strips. Casparian strip formation is initiated by the l...
