Abstract excerpt
Root length is an important root parameter directly related to the uptake of water and nutrients. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling root length are still not fully understood. Here, we isolated a short-root mutant of rice, dice2 (defective in cell elongation 2). The cell length and meristem size of the roots were decreased in dice2, but the root function in terms of mineral element uptake, root cell...
