Root system architecture analysis in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum (ice plant) seedlings reveals characteristic root halotropic response
One of the major environmental stress factors that affect root growth is salinity. Arabidopsis thaliana, a glycophyte, shows halotropism, whereby it alters the direction of root growth in a non-gravitropic pattern to evade high soil salinity. Asymmetric auxin distribution regulated by the relocation...
