The main functions of plant roots are water and nutrient uptake, soil anchorage, and
interaction with soil-living biota. Root hairs, single cell tubular extensions of root epidermal …

Root hairs are tip-growing extensions from root epidermal cells that play important roles in
nutrient uptake and in plant-soil interactions. In this review, we discuss the major …

Root hairs play important roles for the acquisition of nutrients, microbe interaction and plant
anchorage. In addition, root hairs provide an excellent model system to study cell patterning …

Root hairs are projections from the epidermal cells of the root that are thought to increase its
effective surface area for nutrient and water uptake, enlarge the volume of exploited soil, and …

Root hairs are highly specialized cells found in the epidermis of plant roots that play a key
role in providing the plant with water and mineral nutrients. Root hairs have been used as a …

Root hairs represent a beneficial agronomic trait to potentially reduce fertilizer and irrigation
inputs. Over the past decades, research in the plant model Arabidopsis thaliana has …

Roots hairs are cylindrical extensions of root epidermal cells that are important for
acquisition of nutrients, microbe interactions, and plant anchorage. The molecular …

Multiple phytohormones, including auxin, ethylene, and cytokinin, play vital roles in
regulating cell development in the root epidermis. However, their interactions in specific root …

The root hair development is controlled by diverse factors such as fate-determining
developmental cues, auxin-related environmental factors, and hormones. In particular, the …

Root hairs project from the surface of the root to aid nutrient and water uptake and to anchor
the plant in the soil. Their formation involves the precise control of cell fate and localized cell …
