Buttresses are probably formed to enhance mechanical stability of tree trunks and/or promote nutrient acquisition. However, the morphological diversity and control of buttress development remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to clarify variations in buttress development related to prevailing wind and declination of tree trunks in warm temperate forests of Japan. We chose two pairs of forest sites with similar precipitation and geographical locations, but with contrasting wind regimes. Buttresses of two Castanopsis species, C. sieboldii and C. cuspidata, were assessed, and the size and direction of the most developed buttress (MDB) were measured for each individual. The average MDB height at the stem of trees at the strong wind site, Sumoto, was less than half of that at the control site, Himeji. However, the result was the opposite at the other strong wind site, Muroto, and control site, Kochi. The average MDB length did not differ between the strong wind and control sites. MDBs were formed corresponding to the direction of the most frequent wind at strong wind sites but not at control sites. The direction of growth of MDBs was almost the same as that at slopes at all the sites. Our results suggest that wind loading likely influences the development of buttresses; however, its effect could also be site-dependent. These results suggest the potential roles of buttress formation on mechanical stability of trees, which have not been appreciated in temperate forests.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69621470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the posttranslational level, protein abundance is controlled by proteasomal degradation of targeted proteins. The substrate-specificity of this process is exerted by F-box proteins taking part in the SCFs (SKP1-CULLIN-F-box protein ligase) E3 ubiquitin protein ligases. In this work an Arabidopsis thaliana AtF-box, which regulates leucine homeostasis, was analyzed in the context of root development. Publicly available data sets and reporter lines revealed AtF-box expression in the primary and lateral roots. Aberrant stem cell divisions were detected in the distal stem cells (DSC) of the AtF-box knockdown lines (AtF-boxamiRNA), suggesting that AtF-box is required for the optimal cell division. Microscopic observations revealed the premature exit from cell proliferation and slower cell division activity. Conversely, in AtF-box overexpression (AtFboxOE) lines the cell division phase was prolonged. The root growth rate was respectively reduced and enhanced in the AtF-boxamiRNA and AtF-boxOE lines compared to the control. From the results of these studies, we concluded that the AtF-box gene is important for the fine-tuning of root growth.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69621496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is hypothesized that suberin accumulation in the exodermis contributes to an apoplastic barrier and plays a vital role in ROL barrier formation. A previous study reported that some genes encoding cytochrome P450 family 86 ( CYP86 ) and glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase ( GPAT ) might be involved in suberin biosynthesis during ROL barrier development of rice roots. However, how these genes are expressed and their contribution to the sequential development of suberin accumulation in rice roots remains unclear. In this study, four CYP86 and five GPAT genes of rice were identified as candidate genes involved in suberin biosynthesis in roots using sequence homology alignment with Arabidopsis suberin and cutin biosynthesis genes. Gene expression analyses revealed that expression of the candidate genes was induced at the region where suberin biosynthesis occurred under stagnant deoxygenated conditions. These genes showed two types of spatiotemporal expression patterns, at the regions of 5–25 mm and 25–35 mm from the root apex. Tissue-specific expression analyses using laser microdissection and histochemical GUS staining revealed that candidate gene expression was similar in the cell layer of the root exodermis. These results suggest that the selected CYP86 and GPAT genes are involved in suberin biosynthesis in the exodermis, and that suberin biosynthesis in the root may be controlled by the spatiotemporal expression of two groups of genes.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69621400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Roots play important roles in crop adaptation to water stress. This study aimed to characterize the vertical root distribution patterns and analyze the root-shoot relationships of different cereal species with different water requirements in response to different soil moisture conditions. Sorghum, maize, and rice were grown under 5% w/w soil moisture content (SMC5), 20% w/w soil moisture content (SMC20) and in waterlogged soil (WL) for 35 days using root box pin-board method. For sorghum and maize, the optimal soil water condition was SMC20 which produced the greatest shoot and root growth, while rice had greatest shoot and root growth under WL. Sorghum significantly increased root to shoot ratio in both water stress conditions, suggesting that sorghum prioritizes carbon partitioning of assimilates towards the roots. Although whole root dry weight and total root length were reduced by water stress, vertical distribution of root traits varied with soil water conditions and promoted root response was observed in specific soil layer. A highly posi tive relationship between root and shoot traits was observed in rice, suggesting that root and shoot trait responses are coupled with changing soil water conditions. Further studies are needed to confirm root architectural changes focusing on differ ent root component traits as well as other root traits related to root architectural structure.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69620988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated the colonization patterns and root modifications of Leohumicola verrucosa, Oidiodendron maius, and Leptobacillium leptobactrum strains on Vaccinium oldhamii hypocotyl cuttings in vitro. Three putative and true mycorrhizal fungal strains (one L. verrucosa and two O. maius) exhibited typical heterorhizic colonization patterns and tended to increase pioneer root branching. However, a root endophytic fungus (L. leptobactrum) uniformly exhibited a lower colonization across the different roots and did not increase the number of pioneer root branches. The colonization patterns and root modification ability of mycorrhizal fungi may be linked, thereby ensuring sufficient colonization sites.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69620945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A ROL barrier is formed in the basal parts of roots and contributes to the enhancement of the longitudinal diffusion of oxygen (O2) via aerenchyma toward the root tips. The adventitious roots of rice (Oryza sativa) can form a ROL barrier in waterlogged soil; however, whether a ROL barrier can be formed in the lateral roots (LRs) of rice remains unclear. Rice possesses two types of LRs: Land S-type. L-type LRs are generally long, thick, and capable of branching, whereas S-type LRs are short, thin, and incapable of branching. In this study, we examined whether the Land S-type LRs of rice possess the ability to form ROL barriers. In L-type LRs, a ROL barrier was formed; the aerenchyma, which is constitutively formed under aerated conditions, was further developed under stagnant deoxygenated conditions, suggesting that these traits promote the supply of O2 to the root tips of LRs. However, neither a ROL barrier, nor aerenchyma was formed in Stype LRs, and thus ROL was observed mostly in the basal parts. Patterns of deposition of suberin, which is thought to be one of the components of the ROL barrier, were consistent with the patterns of ROL-barrier formation in L-type and S-type LRs. These results suggest that Land S-type LRs play distinct roles in the growth of rice plants in waterlogged soils and in oxygenating the rhizosphere.","PeriodicalId":20205,"journal":{"name":"Plant Root","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69620935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
