In multicellular organisms, tissue generation, maintenance, and homeostasis depend on
stem cells. Cellular metabolic status is an essential component of different differentiated …

Roots have both indeterminate and determinate developmental programs. The latter is
preceded by the former. It is not well understood how the indeterminacy‐to‐determinacy …

ABSTRACT A continuum from stem to transit-amplifying to a differentiated cell state is a
common theme in multicellular organisms. In the plant root apical meristem (RAM), transit …

Indeterminate root growth depends on the stem cell niche (SCN) and root apical meristem
(RAM) maintenance whose regulation permits plasticity in root system formation. Using a …

Root system is essential for plants to absorb water and nutrients. The root related traits are
complex quantitative traits and regulated by genetic control. Here, we used two association …

White lupin produces cluster roots in response to phosphorus deficiency. Along the cluster
root, numerous short rootlets successively appear, creating a spatial and temporal gradient …

Primary root (PR) development is a crucial developmental process that is essential for plant
survival. The elucidation of the PR transcriptome provides insight into the genetic …

Root system formation to a great extent depends on lateral root (LR) formation. In
Arabidopsis thaliana, LRs are initiated within a parent root in pericycle that is an external …

With the advent of the molecular era of plant biology, the location and activity of the
quiescent centre (QC) within the root meristem were reappraised with respect to the …

I. INTRODUCTION Clowes (1961) started his book on apical meristems by stat-ing that"
Plants differ from all except the simplest animals in having their growth confined to limited …
