The role of nutrient availability in regulating root architecture.
TL;DR: The ability of plants to respond appropriately to nutrient availability is of fundamental importance for their adaptation to the environment as mentioned in this paper, and the root-hair formation, primary root growth and lateral root formation are particularly sensitive to changes in the internal and external concentration of nutrients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphate Availability Alters Architecture and Causes Changes in Hormone Sensitivity in the Arabidopsis Root System
José López-Bucio,Esmeralda Hernández-Abreu,Lenin Sánchez-Calderón,Marı́a Fernanda Nieto-Jacobo,June Simpson,Luis Herrera-Estrella +5 more
TL;DR: Analysis of ethylene signaling mutants and treatments with 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid showed that ethylene does not promote lateral root formation under P deprivation, suggesting that in Arabidopsis, auxin sensitivity may play a fundamental role in the modifications of root architecture by P availability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of chimaeric genes transferred into plant cells using a Ti-plasmid-derived vector
TL;DR: In this paper, an expression vector derived from the promoter sequence of nopaline synthase was constructed, and the coding sequences of the octopine synthase gene and a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene were inserted into this vector.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is found that dosage compensation effect of tandem duplication genes probably contributed to the pungent diversification in pepper and the Capsicum reference genome provides crucial information for the study of not only the evolution of the pepper genome but also, the Solanaceae family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphate Nutrition: Improving Low-Phosphate Tolerance in Crops
Damar Lizbeth López-Arredondo,Marco Antonio Leyva-González,Sandra Isabel González-Morales,José López-Bucio,Luis Herrera-Estrella +4 more
TL;DR: The current advances in research on the complex network of plant responses to low-phosphorus stress are outlined and some strategies used to manipulate genes involved in phosphate uptake, remobilization, and metabolism to develop low-Phosphate-tolerant crops are discussed, which could help in designing more efficient crops.
