Arabidopsis root growth movements and their symmetry: progress and problems arising from recent work.

Plant signaling & behavior - 1 Mar 2009

Migliaccio Fernando, Fortunati Alessio, Tassone Paola

Abstract excerpt

Over the last fifteen years, an increasing number of plant scientists have become interested in the Arabidopsis root growth pattern, that is produced on the surface of an agar plate, inclined from the vertical. In this situation, the roots wave intensely and slant preferentially towards one side, showing torsions in the epidermal cell files alternately right-and left handed. In addition, the pattern switches to...
