research Graphene Oxide and Indole-3-Acetic Acid Cotreatment Regulates the Root Growth of Brassica Napus L. via Multiple Phytohormone Pathways
Graphene oxide and indole-3-acetic acid together inhibit root growth in Brassica napus L. by affecting multiple plant hormone pathways.
research Some Observations on the Proteins of the Inner Root Sheath Cells of Hair Follicles
research The Influence of Cyproterone Acetate Orally on the Hair Root Status in Women with Idiopathic Hirsutism
research Phenotypic Effect of Growth Media on Arabidopsis Thaliana Root Hair Growth
This study investigated the impact of different growth media on the root hair development of Arabidopsis thaliana by using 18 different media combinations. The research highlighted the sensitivity of root hairs to environmental changes, which complicates phenotype comparisons. The study found that certain media combinations led to the formation of the longest root hairs, which grew to a final length of approximately 0.6 mm at a distance of about 4 mm from the root tip, maintaining a constant growth rate through tip growth.
research Glabrous Inflorescence Stems3 Binds to and Activates RHD2 and RHD4 Genes to Promote Root Hair Elongation in Arabidopsis
A protein called GIS3 is important for the growth of root hairs in Arabidopsis by controlling two genes with the help of certain growth signals.
research Effects of 17 Alpha-Ethinylestradiol, Norethindrone, and Levonorgestrel on Root Growth of Arabidopsis Thaliana
The study investigated the effects of 17 α-ethinylestradiol, norethindrone, and levonorgestrel on the root growth of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings. Norethindrone at 30 μg·L~(-1) significantly promoted taproot growth and increased lateral root number and length, while 17 α-ethinylestradiol at 3,000 μg·L~(-1) caused taproot bending. Norethindrone was most effective at 300 μg·L~(-1), enhancing taproot length and lateral root development, but at 3,000 μg·L~(-1), it inhibited root-hair growth. Levonorgestrel was highly active, promoting taproot and root-hair growth at 3 μg·L~(-1), and at 300 μg·L~(-1), it increased lateral root number and root hair density. However, at 3,000 μg·L~(-1), it inhibited taproot and lateral root growth.
research A Glutathione-Dependent Control of the Indole Butyric Acid Pathway Supports Arabidopsis Root System Adaptation to Phosphate Deprivation
Glutathione helps Arabidopsis roots adapt to low phosphate by regulating a specific growth pathway.
