The volume flux, $J_{v}$, and the osmotic driving force, σΔπ, across excised root systems of Zea mays were measued as a function of ΔP, the hydrostatic pressure ...

Dorsal root injury results in substantial and often irreversible loss of sensory functions as a result of the limited regenerative capacity of sensory axons and the inhibitory barriers that prevent ...

It is easy to study what you can see. Researchers know a lot about how plants work aboveground, but what happens out of sight under the surface may control more than we once thought. It is easy to ...

Plants form a vast network of below-ground roots that search soil forneeded resources. Excavation of root systems reveals special resource-finding environmental adaptations but is laborious, ...
