Abstract excerpt
Growth and development of plant roots are highly dynamic and adaptable to environmental conditions. They are under the control of several plant hormone signaling pathways, and therefore root developmental responses can be used as bioassays to study the action of plant hormones and other small molecules. In this chapter, we present different procedures to measure root traits of the model plant Arabidopsis...
