,
January 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that CRISPR/Cas9 efficiently edited two cellulose synthase-like genes in spinach, significantly altering root hair growth patterns and suggesting potential for large-scale genome editing in this crop.
January 2024 in “Frontiers in plant science” The zinc finger protein 3 in Arabidopsis thaliana reduces plant growth and root hair development.
37 citations
,
August 2014 in “Journal of experimental botany” This study identified the AtPRPL1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana as being involved in cell elongation processes, despite unclear changes in cell wall composition from its altered expression.
75 citations
,
July 2016 in “New phytologist” This study found that RSL4 in Arabidopsis thaliana regulates genes necessary for root hair elongation by controlling proteins involved in cell signaling, cell wall modification, and secretion.
