Developmental roles of AUX1/LAX auxin influx carriers in plants (2019)
Journal Article
Swarup, R., & Bhosale, R. (2019). Developmental roles of AUX1/LAX auxin influx carriers in plants. Frontiers in Plant Science, 10, https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2019.01306

Plant hormone auxin regulates several aspects of plant growth and development. Auxin is predominantly synthesized in the shoot apex and developing leaf primordia and from there it is transported to the target tissues e.g. roots. Auxin transport is po...

miRNAs in plant development (2019)
Book Chapter
Swarup, R., & Denyer, T. (2019). miRNAs in plant development. . Wiley. https://doi.org/10.1002/9781119312994.apr0649

Since the discovery of the first microRNA (miRNA) in Caenorhabditis elegans about 25 years ago, small RNAs have emerged as key players in the broad regulation of gene expression in most developmental processes in both plants and animals. miRNAs are... Read More about miRNAs in plant development.

Role of cis-zeatin in root responses to phosphate starvation (2019)
Journal Article
Silva-Navas, J., Conesa, C. M., Saez, A., Navarro-Nelia, S., Garcia-Mina, J. M., Zamarreño, A. M., …del Pozo, J. C. (2019). Role of cis-zeatin in root responses to phosphate starvation. New Phytologist, 224(1), 242-257. https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.16020

Phosphate (Pi) is an essential nutrient for all organisms. Root are underground organs, but the majority of the root biology studies have been done growing the root system in presence of light. Root illumination alters the Pi starvation response (... Read More about Role of cis-zeatin in root responses to phosphate starvation.

Rice plants overexpressing OsEPF1 show reduced stomatal density and increased root cortical aerenchyma formation (2019)
Journal Article

Stomata are adjustable pores in the aerial epidermis of plants. The role of stomata is usually described in terms of the trade-off between CO2 uptake and water loss. Little consideration has been given to their interaction with below-ground developme...

Identification of nitrogen-dependent QTL and underlying genes for root system architecture in hexaploid wheat (2019)

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....
