Abstract excerpt
Hydrotropism refers to the tendency of roots which prefer to grow towards a region with more water availability. We previously detected higher responses of cytokinins on the drier sides of Arabidopsis root tips, which lead to more cell division activity there and the growth of roots towards higher water potential areas. To further verify the significance of cell division activity in controlling root hydrotropism,...
