ROOT ARCHITECTURE

Plants and fibers can work together to make concrete more eco-friendly. This is especially important for protecting slopes from erosion. But how exactly do they do this? And what happens when the plants die? These are the big questions scientists are trying to answer. First, let's talk about the pl

When plants like Arabidopsis encounter L-glutamate at their root tips, it causes significant changes in their root structure. But how they sense this amino acid is a mystery. Scientists know that GLUTAMATE RECEPTOR-LIKE (GLR) proteins act as channels that let calcium in when they detect amino acids,
