Auxin Distribution in Lateral Root Primordium Development Affects the Size and Lateral Root Diameter of Rice
Lateral roots (LRs) occupy a large part of the root system and play a central role in plant water and nutrient uptake. Monocot plants, such as rice, produce two types of LRs: the S-type (short and thin) and the L-type (long, thick, and capable of further branching). Because of the ability to produce...
