The formation of adventitious roots (ARs) is an ecologically and economically important
developmental process in plants. The evolution of AR systems is an important way for plants …

As plants are sessile, they cannot escape exposure to multiple environmental stresses. Over
the course of evolution, a range of morphological and physiological adaptations has been …

Age and wounding are two major determinants for regeneration. In plants, the root
regeneration is triggered by wound-induced auxin biosynthesis. As plants age, the root …

The major root system of cereals consists of crown roots (or adventitious roots), which are
important for anchoring plants in the soil and for water and nutrient uptake. However, the …

Symbiotic nodulation is initiated in the roots of legumes in response to low nitrogen and
rhizobial signal molecules and is dynamically regulated by a complex regulatory network …

Seed plants usually undergo various developmental phase transitions throughout their
lifespan, mainly including juvenile-to-adult and vegetative-to-reproductive transitions, as …

In vitro shoot culture has been widely used for restoring adventitious rooting ability in rooting
recalcitrant woody perennial species for the past few decades, but its molecular mechanism …

Adventitious root (AR) formation is a critical factor in the vegetative propagation of forestry
and horticultural plants. Competence for AR formation declines in many species during the …

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation in legume nodules is important in soils with low nitrogen
availability. The initiation and sustainability of symbiosis require cellular reprogramming that …

Drought is the major abiotic stress that limits apple productivity and quality. To date, many
important and divergent regulatory functions of miR156/SBP genes in plant growth and …
