The above ground growth of the plant is highly dependent on the belowground root system.
Rhizosphere is the zone of continuous interplay between plant roots and soil microbial …

Abstract Background and Aims Previous laboratory studies have suggested selection for
root hair traits in future crop breeding to improve resource use efficiency and stress …

Microplastic pollution has emerged as a critical global environmental issue due to its
widespread distribution, persistence, and potential adverse effects on ecosystems and …

Understanding phosphorus (P) dynamics in the rhizosphere is crucial for sustainable crop
production. P mobilization processes in the rhizosphere include the release of plant and …

Soil microbes play a vital role in improving plant growth, crop productivity, and soil health
through solubilization of essential nutrients. Present investigation was conducted to access …

Purpose Simultaneously interacting rhizosphere processes determine emergent plant
behaviour, including growth, transpiration, nutrient uptake, soil carbon storage and …

A peculiar bacterial growth was very often noticed in leaf-initiated tissue cultures of
Sansevieria trifasciata, a succulent belonging to the Asparagaceae family. The isolate left …

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 …

The production of major field crops, namely, rice, wheat, and maize, is highly vulnerable to
climatic factors and abiotic stresses. In the present era of climate change, abiotic factors …

Aims Root hairs are important for uptake, especially for nutrients with low mobility in soils
with high sorption capacity. Mutants with defective root hairs are expected to have lower …
