Gibberellin Promotes Sweetpotato Root Vascular Lignification and Reduces Storage-Root Formation

Sweetpotato yield depends on a change in the developmental fate of adventitious roots into storage-roots. The mechanisms underlying this developmental switch are still unclear. We examined the hypothesis claiming that regulation of root lignification determines storage-root formation. We show that a...
