Abstract excerpt
Low bioavailability of phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe) induces morphogenetic changes in roots that lead to a higher surface-to-volume ratio. In Arabidopsis, an enlargement in the absorptive surface area is achieved by an increase in the length and frequency of hairs in roots of Fe- and P-deficient p...
