Plant Root Architecture: Genes, Hormones, Microbes, Environment
Received Date: Sep 01, 2025 / Published Date: Sep 29, 2025
Abstract
Root architecture is crucial for plant water and nutrient uptake, impacting crop yield and stress tolerance. This research syntheses recent advances in understanding root system development, covering genetic controls, environmental responsiveness, and hormonal regulation. Key findings include the identification of genes governing root traits, the role of the microbiome, and the impact of environmental factors. High-throughput phenotyping and genetic studies in crops like rice and wheat are accelerating discoveries. Insights into root plasticity, epigenetics, and multi-omics data integration are paving the way for improved agricultural sustainability and climate-resilient crops.
