Growth is required for perception of water availability to pattern plant root branches
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Lateral root branching in higher plants is promoted in regions locally contacting a source of water, and suppressed in regions exposed to low water availability. We found that developmental competence to respond to this environmental signal is limited to growing tissues. We profiled gene expression in regions of the maize primary root exposed to low and high water availability both within and outside of the zone of competence.
