ACTIN2 is essential for bulge site selection and tip growth during root hair development of Arabidopsis.

Plant physiology - 1 Aug 2002

Ringli Christoph, Baumberger Nicolas, Diet Anouck, Frey Beat, Keller Beat

Abstract excerpt

Root hairs develop as long extensions from root epidermal cells. After the formation of an initial bulge at the distal end of the epidermal cell, the root hair structure elongates by tip growth. Because root hairs are not surrounded by other cells, root hair formation provides an excellent system for studying the highly complex process of plant cell growth. Pharmacological experiments with actin...
