OsERF27 ‐ OsPLT4 regulatory module and ROS equilibrium control temporospatial rice crown root patterning

Summary In rice ( Oryza sativa ), the root architecture is heavily shaped by shoot‐borne crown roots that arise from the phytomers at the stem base. Each phytomer typically generates two spatially distinct crown root populations – lower/proximal and upper/distal crown roots – tha...

OpenAlea.HydroRoot: A modelling framework to dissect, predict and phenotype branched root hydraulic architecture

Abstract Drought is a significant factor in agricultural losses, making it imperative to understand how root system architecture (RSA) adapts to environmental condition like water deficit. HydroRoot is a functional-structural plant model (FSPM) aimed at analyzing and simulating h...
