Phosphite treatment can improve root biomass and nutrition use efficiency in wheat (2022)
Journal Article
Mohammed, U., Davis, J., Rossall, S., Swarup, K., Czyzewicz, N., Bhosale, R., …Swarup, R. (2022). Phosphite treatment can improve root biomass and nutrition use efficiency in wheat. Frontiers in Plant Science, 13, Article 1017048. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2022.1017048

Phosphite represents a reduced form of phosphate that belongs to a class of crop growth-promoting chemicals termed biostimulants. Previous research has shown that phosphite application can enhance root growth, but its underlying mechanism, especially...

Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism (2022)
Journal Article
Fusi, R., Rosignoli, S., Lou, H., Sangiorgi, G., Bovina, R., Pattem, J. K., …Salvi, S. (2022). Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,

Root angle in crops represents a key trait for efficient capture of soil resources. Root angle is determined by competing gravitropic versus anti-gravitropic offset (AGO) mechanisms. Here we report a new root angle regulatory gene termed ENHANCED GRA... Read More about Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism.
