… the growth of roots of intact seedlings of Zea mays, and for deriving from these data average
rates of elongation with time, which will apply to infinitesimal portions of the root at known …

… The entire cap can be removed from the apex of the primary root of Zea mays. When this is
done the nuclei of cells of the quiescent centre are stimulated to synthesize DNA and subse…

… The results indicate that the root cap is particularly important in maintaining basipetal
polarity of auxin transport in primary roots of corn. The induction of root curvature by unilateral …

… induce the rapid growth of roots. Primary roots of Zea were used in this study because they
are well-suited for systematic analysis of the initial growth of roots from germinating seeds. …

… • Background Maize (Zea mays) forms a complex root system comprising embryonic and
post‐embryonic roots. The embryonically formed root system is made up of the primary root and …

… root (hybrid CE 380), summarized [3,4] and completed with the aim of characterizing the
growth region of the root … Primary roots that had grown 60 ± 5 mm within 72 h were used for …

… Ca2+ and pH on root elongation in Zea mays L. cv. … may play an important role in determining
the rate of root growth. Our findings are consistent with the following model for Ca2+ in root-…

… primary roots similar to those used in the physiological experiments. The principal observation
was that the xylem vessels near the root … from the root tip; above 10 cm from the root tip all …

… Primary roots of Zea mays seedlings have been cut into successive segments beginning
at the tip. From macerations and microtome sections of these segments, estimates have been …

… The cell populations of the root cap and the primary growth region of the main root axis in
Zea mays, as referred to in this study, have been defined respectively by Barlow (1975), …
