January 2018 in “Scientific Reports” In this study, mycorrhizal fungal inoculation was associated with increased root-hair growth and enhanced drought tolerance in trifoliate orange by modulating auxin synthesis and transport under water stress conditions.
6 citations

November 2021 in “Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca” This study found that low phosphorus stress increases walnut root hair growth by affecting auxin transport, while no phosphorus stress has the opposite effect, impacting plant growth and nutrient absorption.
28 citations
,
March 2018 in “Scientia Horticulturae” This study found that 3-indolebutyric acid (IBA) increased root-hair growth in trifoliate orange by elevating auxin levels, while 2-naphthoxyacetic acid (2-NOA) had the opposite effect, inhibiting root-hair growth.
44 citations
,
March 2008 in “Journal of Experimental Botany” This study found that during bark regeneration after girdling, immature xylem cells can transdifferentiate into phloem cells, with exogenous indole acetic acid accelerating this process.
122 citations
,
May 2010 in “Plant Physiology” This study found that expressing certain PIN proteins in Arabidopsis root hairs inhibited growth by decreasing auxin levels, while PIN5 slightly stimulated growth, demonstrating differential effects on auxin transport.
